It depends on the PR of the blog itself.

Commenting on relevant to your site blogs will certainly help you get a boost on your rankings in search engines.

Additionally it is not only the SEO benefits, commenting on high traffic blogs and contributing to the discussion (do not just leave a comment for the sake of a link) will bring a lot of traffic if you are a regular commentator.

Another plus is that many blogs use top commentators widgets which means that if you comment regularly on a blog your site will get featured on every page of the blog something that will create a lot of exposure to your site and seo benefits...

Yep, think of blog commenting as a way to get traffic and sales directly rather than a way to get backlinks. You'll build a following, get more Facebook and LinkedIn connections, etc.

Are you talking about your PageRank or the rankings of the page? Those are two different things.

Depends on the PR of the page you are commenting, even no follow high PR back link is still is important to Google. I comment on many nofollow high PR blogs, in one month my blogs come from PR 0 to PR 4th.

Most blogs are no follow. I think that is what hurting you.

You can check if blogs are dofollow pretty easily. I use seomoz which (when turned on) will highlight dofollow links on any page that I'm on, making it very fast and easy to see.

I agree, however, that finding the higher ranking, quality blogs is important. It's also important to create a relationship with the blog. You have a really good opportunity when leaving a link on a blog to not only gain a backlink (if it's a dofollow) but to entice readers to your site. If I read an intelligent, funny or interesting comment I will often click on their link to have a look at their site.
