] It seems this morning that bloggers have taken over the ] world. ] ] Or at least the 2004 presidential campaign. Or at least ] the not-so-invisible primary leading up to the campaign. ] ] The pundits are blogging. The journalists are blogging. ] And now the candidates are blogging. ] ] Who needs television? Let's just eliminate the middleman. ] ] Here's the deal: ABC's The Note (which went AWOL during ] the war but is now back) has gone beyond offering its ] cheeky interpretation of campaign spin. It now offers ] free space (hey, it's all free in cyberspace) to the '04 ] contenders to add their own cheeky interpretation of ] their own campaign spin. ] ] Getting dizzy yet? ] ] So now we have the following exciting scenario: Candidate ] gives speech. ABC News reports speech. ABC's Note blogs ] speech. Then candidate blogs his own speech, knocking ] down any negative interpretation by other bloggers. And ] we blog the whole incestuous process.
