Ann: You’re being scooped by Jerome Armstrong of MyDD, who says that he’s posting hot new rumors he’s hearing from the other bloggers at the CNN Blogparty.
Get with it! We want the latest, hottest political news.
Can you find out the results of the latest exit polls?
Ann: Become friends with Blogparty hostess Abbi Tatton to snag an on-air interview. It would be great to see you interviewed on CNN’s main cable channel.
What I saw of this on CNN was incredibly weird: a bunch of people together in a room hunched over their isolating little virtual windows instead of socializing with each other. They are probably even talking to each other through this back channel instead of face to face.
It disturbs me anyway how much I'm hunched over this thing, this window out of the world and into the Matrix, or something. What I saw in that room confirmed my worst fears about myself and my bloggerkind.

Don't get too postmodern on us.
It's all so meta!

Hey, thanks, Ann. I canceled my cable, but didn't know cable was on the internet.
Are they feeding you at this gig? If so, what?
How postmodern...
Speaking of post modern, just logged onto the blog party watching CNN at the moment...
And I'm on the other side of the world (Wellington, New Zealand)...
Am a political junkie, feel free to check out my blog http://nickarcher.blogspot.com
Don't be announcing that you broke up Brittany and K-Fed as well, Ann! Leave that to HuffPo...
Yeah, I'd say there does seem to be a shortage of scoops...
...yet an excess of everyone being
---- fascinated by eachother, being fascinated by their own fascination.
....as everybody watches everybody else, watch eachother.
Gee. I guess that type of environment doesn't lend itself to covering all the lastest breaking news, that everyone at home is getting hours ago.
But I'm sure it's still fun nonetheless.
Peace, Maxine

What I really want to know is, which bloggers are flying solo, and which ones come with "entourages" attached?
Hopefully, all are flying solo, but I bet there are one or two who need "assistants" to do their blogging properly.
Dish the dirt Professor, please.
Pretty, please.
Wow, I don't think I've ever seen so many canisters of Parmesan cheese.
If nothing else, you'll never run out of Parmesan.
There's something to be said for that.
Peace, Maxine
Is that blogger hottie from the Clinton picture there? What's she like?

I suppose I should breakdown and actually turn on the idiot box and see this for myself
