First of all: Oh my gosh! Jay McCarthy commented on my blog instead of writing his own blog post about it! (He’s a big proponent for people having their own blogs so they can interact with other bloggers that way instead of commenting on other people’s blogs.)

Oh. I get it. ha ha ha

Sarcasm/humor in the blog environment (and trying to get it to work). I wondered if you were trying to crack a joke in cyberspace. I’m a little edgy ’cause I really don’t want people to think I’m for one candidate over another on my blog ’cause I really am trying to be mysterious about who I’m supporting and honest in my reports about campaign events. And I wrote that post with a slight touch of sarcasm that never comes through on my blog. <sigh> I’ve got to work on that.

I am enjoying reading how people interpret my reports, though. I wonder how many of them are projecting their own preferences onto what they’re reading. I haven’t read any of Gephardt’s people saying I support him or Lieberman people saying I’m all for Joe. We’ll see what happens.

I was *trying* to be funny by saying you were supporting a particular candidate when you specifically said you weren’t. I guess it didn’t work.
