unless you're intending to set yourself up as a full on political blogger, moving to blogger for it will likely be futile - most of my friends who have done that have not really stuck to that. Its almost impossible to develop an audience; most people read you on LJ because they don't need to think about going to find your blog (which is not that people don't enjoy your stuff, only that its hard to remember to hit all those sites...there are about 5 or 6 sites I read regularly but that I wouldn't read, except they have RSS feeds, and they remind me through feeds here on LJ).
If you do decide to go to blogger or something like Typepad, make sure to set up an RSS feed here on LJ, for the people who would like to read your political opinions, but who will otherwise simply forget to check up on you (resulting in how I personally used to read webcomics - remembering them once every 5 months and then reading the whole run for an hour instead of keeping up with it daily)
sometimes i read your political postings, sometimes I skim 'em, sometimes I skip 'em--depends how I'm feeling and whether I have time that day. (sort of like anybody else on LJ, in fact.) if you post the stuff elsewhere, though, I'm exceedingly unlikely to read it unless you RSS-feed it to LJ or something.
