CALLING ALL INDC READERS AND BLOGGERS IN ARMS!
Posted by Bill Please go to this link, register with the Washington Post and vote INDC Journal the "Best Inside the Beltway" Blog. I have been nominated and matched up against my potty-mouthed, left-wing, light-weight, strawberry-blonde nemesis and certainly much worse, a man that derives grim satisfaction from the death and mutilation of Americans in Iraq. I certainly won't mind losing to "the Corner." I can even live with losing to Joshua Michael Jeremiah Marshall's Buddy Holly glasses and turtleneck; he can actually write. But if there is any semblance of justice left in man's universe, I will not lose to Markos Moulitsas "Screw Them" Zúniga, or the pimpette of the blogosphere, known to longtime INDC readers only as She Who Will Not Be Named or Linked. That being said, it's a reader poll, and both of those sites severely spank me in traffic levels, so the outcome may be a foregone conclusion. Help me at least make it close. Go to this link, and don't be lazy; take the 10 seconds to register so that you may vote. Then scroll down and look for ... Best Inside the Beltway And vote your conscience. Spread the word. If we can ruin Dan Rather's day, we may just have a shot at taking a swipe at the worst of the (paid) New Media as well. If you prefer, by all means vote for NRO. This may be the second most important ballot you cast this year. Ok, third, perhaps fourth or fifth, if you have to cast a ballot for your co-op or condo board, or something. In addition to an explicit shout-out to IMAO in the humor category, below the fold are INDC's other endorsements: Best Rant Best Democratic Party Coverage Best Republican Party Coverage Best International Most Original Best Campaign Dirt Best Outside the Beltway Class Clown Most Likely To Last Beyond Election Day Posted by Bill at September 28, 2004 05:50 PM | TrackBack (8) CommentsDone! And I'll have you know I almost never register for anythihg. Posted by: Dulce at September 28, 2004 06:05 PM Done. Posted by: Jer at September 28, 2004 06:08 PM Did it, dude. Posted by: Terry Mann at September 28, 2004 06:22 PM Done. Posted by: mikem at September 28, 2004 06:33 PM
What is a kos, anyway? And why do we need one every day? Posted by: Blacknimbus at September 28, 2004 06:40 PM Jeez, you want my money and my vote? Are you sure you're not a Rove operative? Posted by: Farrah at September 28, 2004 06:42 PM Done and done. I voted for those same ones before reading your endorsements...except I went for Iraq the Model instead in the international area. Posted by: Pete at September 28, 2004 06:47 PM Done. Question: why is Daily Kos listed as both "inside" and "outside" the Beltway? Posted by: Joanna at September 28, 2004 06:48 PM Done. Now are you ready for your voting constituency's demands? LOL Posted by: MD at September 28, 2004 06:54 PM Done. But I used SpamHole.com for my email addy since I refuse to give that kind of information. Not because of privacy concerns, but because I am a dick. Posted by: Sharp as a Marble at September 28, 2004 06:59 PM Most original Lileks?? Dude, I think u meant Most Phoned In. Seriously, all that stuff about what he watched on TV the night before, what they had for dinner? I can't wait till I'm that original. Posted by: jeff at September 28, 2004 07:05 PM If you don't recognize the originality of his allusions, metaphors and sentence structures in the tail end of his entries, I can't help you buddy. And look at his competition. Posted by: Bill from INDC at September 28, 2004 07:13 PM I tried but I fell asleep. Oh well, I voted for u anyway. Can u believe Kos & Duncan are in there?? They're TERRIBLE. At least Marshall can write. Half their posts are just "Open Thread: DISCUSS!" Is that too brilliant? But Frank J is really funny. They needed more categories. Posted by: jeff at September 28, 2004 07:24 PM Lileks is original, but I had to go with Charles Johnson at LGF. I think that fallen away Democrats likes Charles and I are among the most original citizens of our beleaguered nation. It's dichotomy in action. You are either pre-11 or post-11. And if you use "Cold Mountain" as your personal meme, you are pre-11. Posted by: Terry Mann at September 28, 2004 07:26 PM Even though you trashed one of my comments and hurt my little feelings,just to show what a great person I am, I went and voted for Kos as you implored.At least that way maybe Wonkette won't win,although she totally rules.
Posted by: dougf at September 28, 2004 07:42 PM dougf - are you kidding me? You voted for the guy that celebrated the mutilation of Americans? Posted by: Bill (NOT INDC JOURNAL) at September 28, 2004 07:51 PM Done, and why the hell was KOS in both the Democratic and republic Coverage category!!! Posted by: Oat at September 28, 2004 07:55 PM 'are you kidding me?'--- Bill Yes. Posted by: dougf at September 28, 2004 07:55 PM You have been voted. Now, perhaps you'll indulge me in a bit of vote-trading. I voted for you ... you vote for Kerry. What do you say? --|PW|-- Posted by: pennywit at September 28, 2004 08:09 PM Like others have said, I never register for anything, but I did today. You have much power. Use it carefully. Great job. Thanks for your work. Posted by: Amok at September 28, 2004 08:14 PM Another one. Posted by: Stephen Macklin at September 28, 2004 08:23 PM Done. But I used bugmenot.com to avoid registration which may be seen as a "hanging chad" if a recount is needed. Posted by: Scott at September 28, 2004 08:40 PM Done. And you are only wrong on one vote -- IMAO is NOT funny; Scrappleface IS. -jra Posted by: kobekko at September 28, 2004 08:42 PM Does this vote meet international standards? Any comment from Jimmy Carter yet? Posted by: Rich at September 28, 2004 08:46 PM I voted for you way back at noon when I saw Jim Geraghty's post. Was already a "member" at WaPo, so I didn't have to sign up. Posted by: kimsch at September 28, 2004 09:43 PM "IMAO is NOT funny; Scrappleface IS." Decisions, decisions. Well, I did my part. Also, I voted for the people I liked the best, none of which happened to be in the NYT Magazine this weekend. Posted by: Jim Treacher at September 28, 2004 10:05 PM Done like dinner. Posted by: Ghost of a flea at September 28, 2004 10:19 PM Can we vote more than once? This is an honest question; for example, when fans vote for the baseball all-star team, they vote and vote and vote, stuffing the ballot boxes for the old home team as it were. Posted by: MD at September 28, 2004 10:25 PM Um, Bill, you linked her... Posted by: Evilwhiteguy at September 28, 2004 10:37 PM I know, right? I'm torn ... Posted by: Bill from INDC at September 28, 2004 10:41 PM Done. Good luck and I hope you win. Posted by: Frank Villon at September 28, 2004 10:50 PM Done. And I used BugMeNot for the registration too. Frank is sometimes amusing. Scott is always funny....and a very nice guy BTW. Posted by: rita at September 28, 2004 10:58 PM I have already penciled you in for every category that applies. One question. Considering Jimmy Carters performance in the Venezuala elections. And his recent attempts to invalidate the Nov. Florida Presidential election, might it be possible to have Jimmy give us all a helping hand. After all with Jimmy's track record he may find a way to allow all of us INDC voters a chance to vote twice, or threee times. Or a hundred. Good luck Bill. Posted by: Marc at September 28, 2004 11:03 PM voted. Bill, you slice like a fucking hammer. SHIT! Wrong blog! Posted by: McGurk at September 28, 2004 11:17 PM Done. With pleasure. Posted by: Joel (No Pundit Intended) at September 28, 2004 11:37 PM vote for you? I nominated you! so you better win! and I think you give too much power to that goofball pimpchick. just step over it when you have to. it'll only stick if you put your shoe in it. my gripe is that Jeff G, Betsy and Dodd didn't make the cut -- they're top of my list. maybe next year. Posted by: tee bee at September 28, 2004 11:40 PM I can't believe you linked SWWNBNOL. You're such a sleaze. Posted by: Boyd at September 28, 2004 11:51 PM I already voted for you, now do I get on your Blogroll, you arrogant Right Wing Genius You! DA Posted by: David Anderson at September 29, 2004 12:25 AM Big surprise here...you've got my vote. As do LGF and NRO and Wonkette.
Posted by: jmflynny at September 29, 2004 12:53 AM Except for Redstate I voted the party line. Posted by: Veeshir at September 29, 2004 06:33 AM You're the Man.....Nicely Done ..... InDCJournal is like a cup a joe for the mind. Posted by: David at September 29, 2004 07:11 AM Done. Voted right down the party line. Good luck, Bill. Posted by: Val Prieto at September 29, 2004 07:33 AM Done. And you are only wrong on one vote -- IMAO is NOT funny; Scrappleface IS. There are a few fools out there who cannot understand my genius, but, when the blog wars are over and I am the only one left standing, they shall all pay dearly. A vote for IMAO is a vote to preserve your own life. Posted by: Frank J. at September 29, 2004 09:04 AM Wanna know the best thing about running multiple websites with multiple e-mail addresses that are currently not in use? Posted by: TC-LeatherPenguin at September 29, 2004 01:59 PM Shhhhhh. Jimmy Carter will hear you! Posted by: Bill from INDC Journal at September 29, 2004 02:07 PM Of course I voted for you for Beltway...I'da voted for you in other categories, too, if I could have. It's just because you're deliciously strict...yet fair. Posted by: willow at September 29, 2004 03:04 PM i voted for you, even before Frank said to. Posted by: sarahk at September 29, 2004 05:03 PM I actually voted for you, before I voted against you. Posted by: Misspent at September 29, 2004 09:14 PM Did it yesterday. I like Scraple Face for Clown. Otherwise we seem to be on the same page, as they say. Would not vote for W or K for dog catchers, sene em both to Iraq. Better yer MCRD San DIego for three months; if they live through it. Posted by: Rod Stanton at October 1, 2004 05:10 PM Voila! Bonne chance! Posted by: Bohemian Conservative at October 1, 2004 10:23 PM Done. But does it matter? Couldn't you just have the Courts overturn the election if you lose? Posted by: Confuscious at October 2, 2004 12:29 AM 3600 How can this all be as nice? Check out my site http://www.pai-gow-keno.com Posted by: pai gow at October 8, 2004 04:51 AM |
