Adam ('The Palmetto Scoop') Fogle's response

Just received this response to my inquiries from Adam Fogle at "The Palmetto Scoop (that's him pictured above with Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue):"

Brad,
    When you emailed me asking me to identify myself, I was  happy to do so... nothing to hide.  As far as disclosures go, you and I are very similar.
    I started my blog on my own --  not on anyone's payroll.  I do it because I enjoy it and it's something I got into in Georgia on the website Peach Pundit (www.PeachPundit.com), which is run by RedState's Erick Erickson. I love to write, I love politics, and I think I'm a pretty good blogger.
    How much do I make from my blog?  Like you: zippo (except a little revenue from ads).
    And like you, I also like John McCain.  No secret there.  I think he's best prepared to be our commander-in-chief.  Earlier this year, I even volunteered to help out at a few events but never in a paid capacity.
    After I started my blog, I was hired by Rick Quinn as an account representative for Mail Marketing Strategies, a direct mail business in Columbia.
    I have continued my blog on my own.  It is not and has never been a part of my official duties.
    And my blog, unlike some others, has never and will never engage in anonymous character assassination.  Yes, Rick's dad is a consultant to John McCain.  But no one pays me to blog.
    I will call you in about 30 mins. to follow up.
