Yes, you can set up a blog by first doing:
M-x weblogger-setup-weblog RET
But there were some quirks when I tried this with Drupal 6. I think I had to
have at least one post already in the blog before it worked. But after that, I
was able to weblogger with the function defined in the link below to post to
Drupal.

Weblogger just sends the HTML to the blog, and lets you edit existing entries.
It does not produce the actual HTML.
The function from randomsample.de exports an Org-mode buffer to HTML and
"massages" the HTML output to be of a form that blogs like. I.e., gets rid of
the headers. Weblogger has nothing to do with org-mode per se, it just lets you
post content to blogs that support XMLRPC.
That's about as far as my knowledge goes, so I hope it helps. This method isn't
completely clean, but it did work for me with Drupal 6 (but haven't gotten it to
work yet in Drupal 7...)
As usual, there's more than a few ways to do things, so the more options the
better in my opinion.
