8 people I think should do Crazy 8

Alun Cairns AM - to get him blogging again...
Carwyn Jones- as he loves blogging so much...
Glyn Davies - as he doesn't stop blogging..
Betsan Powys - as I think her blog is one of the best from a Journalist and I would like to hear her opinions...
What is Wales aka Greg Lewis... could be quite controversial responses...
Southpaw Grammar... same as above!
Paul Flynn MP -one of the best blogger MP's...
Leila Kiersch (Green) I am not sure if this former Green candidate blogs anymore, but worth a try..
