In /sidebar-widget-test/style.css, starting on line 880, you have a rule that 
gives the ul a bottom padding of 15px. That's part of it. The other part is a 
stray <p> element on line 113 of your HTML. From what I can see, there is no 
closing tag, and the only child is a comment element <!--RSS FEED ENDS--> 
before the parent <div> element is closed at the end of the line. Remove the 
<p>, and your whitespace *should* disappear.
