The blog is now defunct. RK was a popular example of a collaborative blog, offering comment and diary posting privileges to its visitors. RK was founded by and in January 2005 with one of the main goals being to help "raise" Democratic Lieutenant Governor Tim Kaine to the position of Governor of Virginia.
