Don't use px for font sizing. Win IE users can't resize your text if
they find it too small or too large to comfortably read (not without
disabling _all_ font sizing via an option buried serveral layers deep
in the preferences)

a.postbody matches <a> elements with class="postbody". You have no
such elements.
.postbody a:link matches <a> elements within an element with
class="postbody". That's what you have.
Time to reread the section on selectors in the spec?
