Mail, mimicry and mental patients

We at cd22watcher have been a little taken back by all the immediate attention this little has blog gotten (ticking up the site counter, thanks!) Initially, we had several e-mails from people trying to guess who we are. There have to be a million blogs authored anonymously on blogspot but this one is driving a few folks nutso.

Then we were amused (ok, laughing our asses off) that a local ultra-lib bloggist and hater of everything Republican tried to give some middle-aged Republican woman credit for our work. Nimrods. We're not her. Get over it.

That started a silly debate at a local on-line newspaper with confused people trying to portray this as a "pro Hrbacek" site! Dang folks around here are more paranoid than we thought. We should emphasize here we don't have a dog in this hunt yet. Hell, we may not even all agree who we're going to support in March. We're just providing some color commentary for anyone who chooses to click over here. Guess we haven't "attacked" Hrbacek enough for the haters. Hey! We've only been up THREE days.

Some loon even thought we were democrats in disguise. (Bwa ha ha!)

Next, the son, (they all have various political commentary blogs) of the above-mentioned bloggist created a parody of our site. It's sophomoric but what would you expect of a rabid dem whose entire family threatens to sue anyone at the drop of a hat.

The Blogger Family

But then things got a little more psycho when we got this (anonymous of course!!) and creepy missive from someone who needs to start pumping more oxygen to their brain or watching reruns of "The Godfather" less...

Ok guys, you had your fun. It's now time to step away from this site.The last thing you want to do is waste valuable campaign time before the local media by answering dumb questions about some silly complaint filed with the FEC regarding an anonymous blog run by campaign staff.... Keep up the schenanigans (sic) and you could find your campaign tied up in knots while your opponents are driving around meeting voters in fancy purple sports cars or making half million dollar ad buys.Don't consider this note a threat. It's just friendly campaign advice to some newcomers here in the district. Play nice and everybody wins."

Play nice? This is going to be more fun than we thought.
