@TheGoodYears: I have to defend my (Mormon, but somewhat lapsed) ex-bf here. He was insanely funny in a completely inappropriate way to the point that he offended my (Catholic) parents the first time we all went to dinner together. He was, however, very considerate. And cute, but everyone knows I have strange taste in Read more

@AvengeMe: Their myspace pages are linked to via Mitt Romney's campaign site, which is where I found them, and all the photos we used are from there. We also comment on searching for Josh Romney, if you notice. As I said, I don't work for Jezebel, so I didn't get your tip and if it uses the same format, Moe and I have Read more

I can't say how many tips Jezebel gets but I get 100+ a day on Wonkette, many of which I often don't have time to read and, if it's someone hawking their own blog for a hit I don't read it at all because it's rarely something I can use. I didn't say anything for Moe because I don't presume to speak for her, and I Read more

@AndSheSaid, daisyfresh: Actually, I never saw it, since I'm not on the Jezebel tip line, and while I skimmed the Gawker article in the NYT I'm not sure I've ever commented on their boards and so didn't pay much attention. But, obviously, it's just a big conspiracy to screw over people I've never heard of or met? Read more

@J.D.Regent: Of course, the total hippie I dated in high school is all married and settled down with a lovely woman and the lawyer I dated for 4 years broke my heart, but whatevs. Read more

@asketchymess: Oh, gosh, silly me for thinking that Nader voters should've done the principled thing and voted their consciences rather than made sure the guy they probably hated most didn't get elected. Obviously one should only vote for candidates in the two-party system because otherwise it's wasting your vote or Read more

@notbetty: She was more ahead of Obama than McCain was in front of Romney when, at 8:00, everyone called the race for McCain. They didn't call anything for her despite her all-night lead in the results because the exit polls were that strongly in her favor. She still only one by about 8,000 votes. It wasn't candidate Read more

@SinisterRouge: When did I say he didn't? He's been running since he got popular too. They're ALL politicians, it's what they do. I take my shots at Obama on Wonkette all the damn time. Read more

@thefrontpage: I'm Megan, one of the Associate Editors at Wonkette (and formerly the anonymous lobbyist columnist). Moe's one of the Jezebel editors. Read more

@teapartys_over: It's like 99% not. After the story broke, a married former campaign staffer came forward and said it was his kid and asked everyone to leave him, his wife, his kids, his mistress and his love child alone. Some people said he was falling on his sword for Edwards, but I can't see him doing that to his Read more
