Depends on what you mean by "porn blog".
If you mean "a blog about porn" -- a site on an adult topic having all the characteristics of a blog, meaning text written with a human voice, participation in the blogging community, a blogroll, and a style that's more than an endless list of links to paysites and galleries -- yes, they can make good money. Yes I have some. No, it won't replace TGPs, it serves a different market. But they are a lot of work. Worthwhile, rewarding, remunerative work, but still work.
But if you mean "a bunch of crappy pictures and gallery links dumped into blogging software, having the function and appearance of a TGP that's been run through a blender with a bucket full of moldy tuna fish" then my opinion is, they suck. They can't make much money because blog readers and searchers click away as soon as they see them, and free porn surfers are better served by a clean TGP. They can't get real blog traffic and they don't have enough good text and links for optimal search engine fodder, which are the keys to making money in adult blogging. They won't replace TGPs, either, because they are more work for webmaster and surfer alike. Yes, you can swap crappy traffic with other porn blogs, and it's probably as profitable as TGPs at the low end, but if you aren't actually going to write a blog, you might as well put your effort into TGPs, because all you've got is a malformed mutant TGP that makes you extra work.
