Congratulations Kiersten. Now that you are part of the Fogarty campaign, will you make an announcement and provide disclosure on Kmareka.com?

In following your blog, your affinity for a particular political party was fairly transparent. I feel that your readers will appreciate the continued transparency.

Thanks very much for the mention, Ian. We are going to work super hard to try to ensure a Democratic victory for Cranston and a better future for our residents, from toddlers to teens to seniors. Cindy has a strong reputation and track record -- just chatting with fellow parents at my babysitters I learned of how well she worked with Ward 2 members in a certain area about 4 years ago, to address creating a "neighborhood watch" for crime. It's great stuff and it comes naturally to her.

It is a swift change, Marc, but crossing the line between reporter and the other side isn't all that uncommon. Jim Taricani, for example, did a spell as Governor Almond's communications guy.

Ian, Wow! Just last week she was a blogger/reporter and interviewed Candidate Fogarty. Now, 6 days later, she becomes Fogarty's campaign coordinator. Who was interviewing who? Remarkable.
