I'm a bit late on this, but I just tried editing Drupal blogs with
Weblogger-Mode (see http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/WebloggerMode), and
it works right out of the box. I wrote about the details here:
http://www.randomsample.de/dru5/node/76
You can also edit existing entries - it's really a great package. I
guess one could hook weblogger directly into orgmode, but manually
exporting to HTML and then doing a quick copy&paste isn't really a big
deal.
