Wonkette
While we lost the “Most Humorous Weblog” nomination to, uh, Gizmodo, we are honored to be nominated for “best weblog about the politics.” Every year through some mysterious process, people choose these nominees for the annual gala Bloggies event, which is held in outer space.
Here’s how it works: You go to this site and vote for us. You can vote for other categories, too. (We don’t care.) But it’s really complicated, so we’ll give you very specific instructions, after the jump.
Once you’ve voted, you put in your e-mail address (that one you only use for Casual Encounters ads) and then the Bloggies will send you an e-mail. You then have to click the thing and then your ballot is accepted. It’s like Florida!
Here is a diagram:
Our competition this year is pretty much the same as last year. There are liberal blogs and a conservative blog, and the readers of those sites will all cancel each other out. If maybe 60 people vote for us, we win.
And why do we deserve it? Beyond the comedy, the insight, the heartbreak and the passion we bring you every day, we deserve it because we pretty much gave the House and Senate to those people you like, the Democrats. Cocktober, Macaca, Stranglin’ Sherwood, Crazy Conrad Burns, etc. Remember? You’re welcome.

I will vote for the site, but only if you hire an Alaskan Bureau Chief. I want far more GILF coverage in '07.
Okay, but now you gotta come up with some good shit on Hagel. Surely he shot a Mexican or something once.
Can I write in bigheadDC.com as a joke!
A town called "Bloggie". That's just sad.
Lord knows I tried, but those little code glyphs are simply unreadable
Wait. You only win twenty bucks for this? That's not even enough to throw a keg party for Wonkette commenters. That's like 6 bottles of Mad Dog. Which I would still accept.
i'm doing my best but those little fuzzy letter and numbers are a little too fuzzy and i keep getting the wrong and each time i get them wrong it makes me go through the whole process of voting for a bunch of blogs i've never read before just so i can vote for you.
metropolitan, I only voted in categories that had Wonkette or GFY. I skipped everything else.
Which probably makes my ballot invalid, but whatever. Go Wonkette!
Oh shit, there's a CASH PRIZE? I thought the winners just got to feel pathetic.
I wanted to write in "chrisdodd.com/blog" but could not decide whether it fit in under politics, humor or music for the "DoddPood."
"And why do we deserve it?" The comedy? The insight? The heartbreak? Thinking. Still thinking.
Got it. It's because of the COMPASSION! Praise Jesus.
"Compassionate snarkivitism." If it worked for Dumbya, it's gotta work for Wonkette.
Well, shit! Wonkette wasn't on the ballot for the best Australian, Asian, or African blog and I stopped looking there. If you expect me to wade through that list so you can win a lousy $20 I'd rather just ante up some of the cash. I still have some money I pledged to Ted Rall for his aborted lawsuit against the always lovely but lately invisible Mr. Coulter.
Okay you got my vote, next year let us know how to get you nominated in the "proper" category. I hope this doesn't put the final nail in Wonkette and have you all serious like The Note thingy. It was really just cocktober that made me do it.Play The Name Game with Obama and we can round you up some more votes I think. I'm late for dinner good night AND good luck. Zucchinni and Chocolate sounds kind of good.Oh, yeah I'm still waiting to hear what the name of the movie the side humped girl got to watch. It could mean a lot in the'08 races.
As one of the few blogs that extensively covers Kitty, Jesus Bachmann, AND dracula cunt, no blog even comes CLOSE to getting my vote.
Can we start a weekly "crazy bitches" update with glorious news of our 3 heroes? I cut myself every day that goes by without news of those three.
Thanks, buddies!
And no, you don't have to vote for "best gay latin canadian design blog for robot pets" or anything, just the ones you care about one way or another.
yeah, 102415, cocktober made me do it too. but it was a helluva incentive for all that.
I believe I am required to report you to the Bloggies judges for trying to sway this election. You're like the Katherine Harris of the Internets. Without the tits.
Jeebus H. Crist! I never heard of most of those blogs, let alone visited them. Ken, should I write a Kos diary about why people should vote for wonkette?
How in the hell did a woman who blogs about her boring-ass baby get nominated in, like, every single category? God, people, your babies aren't special or interesting. Not nearly as interesting as politics and ass-fucking.
Wonkette is in the running with a pet site called "Woof Woofington". Very reassuring. Okay, maybe not so much.
BTW: Why wasn't the Borgen Millenium Suffering Multitudes Project site nominated? Amy, our poor little Amy.
Ok I voted for you guys, so how are you gonna divide up the $20? Enquiring minds want to know. Plus, you know, your fans are expecting kickbacks---this is DC, right? Or are you gonna shortchange us and take us for drinks and then slip out, leaving us the tab? --umm actually that's what I thought you guys would do....Dammit I hate predictability. Exciting guys are so rare nowadays.
It is journalism's proudest moment. This clearly means America is "back on track." Also, I made this helpful instructional graphic so nobody could fuck...
