Yeah, I'm sure they host 'lots' of other people. All on the same server as their nonexistent website. Chromahost isn't the issue anyway...Ryan is.

I only thought that Chromahost was involved at the beginning, because of how highly unlikely it would be for a REAL webhost to not have a site AND to host this junk on the same server as the (blank) hosting site.

Now, though, since we've gotten EVERY SINGLE dem domain that is on your box, you little punk, we KNOW who the actual person in charge is.

All your info are belong to me, sucker.

It's time this mess got cleared up.

I'm Paul Ackerman, one of the two partners from Linwood Campaign Services.

Ryan Fissel is my business partner and he does own Chromahost, but it exists pretty much as a hosting company for our campaign consulting business.

Buckeye State Blog began to be hosted at Chromahost in February of this year once it became a statewide blog dedicated to Ohio Progressive Politics.

Russell Hughlock (who is NOT Russell Walters) runs Buckeye State Blog, we do not.

Russell, based on what I've leared since I started hearing about this at 6:15am this morning, is running some sort of hoax trying to get into your heads.

Frankly, I don't care if he thinks it was successful or not, he's an idiot and has been told repeatedly, and forcefully, to own up to this pathetic joke.

He hasn't so we are now doing so. Tom at Bizzyblog has posted Ryan's response and I'm posting this now.

The fun part was calling all of our current clients to let them know that people on the Internet was lumping them together in some sort of keystone cops plot. And the hardest part was telling my wife, Jean Herendeen Ackerman, about this.

You see, she ran and lost by 68 votes in the primary (on May 2nd ... the January 15th reference was LAST January 15th) for state representative. Ryan Fissel acted as her campaign manager.
