MassBeacon: Is it gone?

So I loved MassBeacon.  I'm pretty sure any political junkie in the state loved MassBeacon.

Conor has a new job and that's great for him.  It really is.  I know it's hard to make a living from blogging, and lord knows I only do it in my spare time.

But is it worth checking out Conor's site still?  I admit I use an RSS reader, so I get every update (once a week to once a month now).  Today, though, made me question if Conor's still maintaining MassBeacon as a bias free site.  There was a juxtaposition in my news reader.

First, I read Capitol View, which posted about Conor's excellent point that Governor Patrick is allowing a no-bid contract for Cape Wind, but not for racetrack slots.  That's fine.  It's in his new position at Liberty Square Group, and even if he'd posted it at MassBeacon, it'd be a legitimate point.  And then I read Conor's post today, where he posts a "priceless web ad" from the MassGOP attacking Governor Patrick.

It, and another post a week ago about the RGA attacking Patrick, are the only news-related posts (as opposed to site-related) in the last week.

So, I feel bad for asking, but can Conor stay objective on MassBeacon?  On the one hand, I know he doesn't have much time to post anything, so maybe he just posts what he can, but... on the other hand, it looks like Conor's blog might interfere with Conor's job.
