Beyond the obvious fact that blog comments are judged on their own content rather than on their authors' credentials, there's also the fact that most smart, well-informed blog commenters are utterly open about who they are, and that therefore it's trivial to know their credentials, if you care about such things -- as opposed to anonymous peer reviewers, who are, well, anonymous.
