What did she do this time?
to come over here and rec her diaries. IndyDem99 does it as well. Kind of sad.
Messages requesting recs like the following go out pretty much each time one of the 'prominent' MYDD Rec listers put a diary up.

If this comment somehow breaks site rules....feel free to hide it...no hard feelings. ;)
The same happens at Kos. The same happens at Kos for people to come here. The same happens all over the blogosphere.
wes Clark and John Edwards supporters did that all the time. There is nothing wrong with saying... "hey, there is a good XYZ candidate diary at blogX, please give it some help".
Obama people do it too.
so you can understand why your constant refrain of "Kos does it too!!" is extremely unpersuasive.
My "constant" refrain?
No... it is a reminder to all of the O supporters to look within and at Dkos before bashing MyDD and Jerome.
see?
not just Jerome but also before bashing other diarist such as Alegre
yes, it is a classic tu quoque. Did you google it?
If someone says "Person A is doing X, and X is bad." Responding with "But B does X too! What about B?" does absolutely nothing to rebut the proposition that X is bad. That's why nobody is persuaded when you use Kos to deflect criticism of posters here.
You don't get it. I am not trying to persuade anyone.
I am simply pointing out the hypocrisy of trying to call out MyDD, Jerome and some of the Hillary Clinton supporters.
I am not trying to say that some of these arguments are not valid. BUT as you point out these arguments fall on deaf ears and people are not persuaded because of the greater hypocrisy of Dkos, other places and other bloggers. (greater, because they are MUCH bigger)
but people shouldn't be gaming the rec list, either here or at Kos. Can you agree on that?
kind of.
But it will continue to happen. I have a feeling this diary got on the list because a call was put out to get it there.
There have been pro Obama diaries that have never made it to the the rec list but this diary that calls out a fellow blogger gets on the rec list with a huge amount of recs.
Kudos for getting it there but....
Nope. The only people who saw this diary did it because they clicked the link. I didn't alert anyone - however, some of the rec list diaries were fading, so that probably helped.
