Delete because article fails to meet WP:BIO. There are no independent secondary sources. The lead doesn't even say why Paul Burka is notable. There are two awards mentioned that might go a ways toward constituting minimal notability, if verified. But there is nothing there now. Why did he win those two awards? Has he won any others? Google searches are difficult, because Paul Burka is a political blogger, and as a result lots of other bloggers talk about him. Additionally, he has written a lot for the Texas Monthly, so he frequently shows up in "Paul Burka" searches as an author. He has a brief mention, page 136, in American Vertigo: Traveling America in the Footsteps of Tocqueville. --Bejnar (talk) 04:37, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
