OKAY, THIS IS THE LAST UPDATE: New news from Cleveland.com:

“I am Winston Steward and have been sending the letters from Ellie Light,” he told The Plain Dealer in an e-mail late Tuesday, following a phone interview in which he said the same. “I hope this ends any confusion and sets the record straight.”

The woman said her husband was using her name because he was afraid he might be attacked by “right-wing crazies up in Bakersfield,” about 40 miles from their home in a mountain community.

Look at the guy. I’m still not convinced “he” isn’t a woman.

There is/was a nutroot at the Daily Kos named Winston Steward who wrote a lunatic diary. The Kos gets no link from me. But consider it true. It is either legit, or a link created by the Kos to throw more jelly in the mix.

And there was an album put out in the 80s by a man named Winston Steward, We can’t claim there one and the same. The album received no reviews. So I can’t even tell if you it sucks or not.

LATEST MAJOR UPDATE: This comment was left at Politico:

I am not Ellie Light!! Ellie Light is my husband, Winston Steward. He wrote all the letters himself. He doesn’t belong to any organizations. It was his idea, and I advised him not to write under phony names.

MAJOR UPDATE: This has “balloon boy” (part 2) written all over it. From Cleveland.Com:

A woman claiming to be Barbara Brooks has now contacted The Plain Dealer and said she is not the letter writer; she claims her ex-husband is running a spoof. The newspaper is investigating; more details as they become available.

I tend to believe someone is jacking around. First, the inconsistencies in the “real” name, and second, the claim of threats, via email. Before anyone even knew who “she” was? Ha. If had to pick one, I’d guess the caller was the real Ellie Light and the Barbara Brooks character is just a pajama wearing freak trying to make a buck. But who knows, they very well both may be pajama wearing freaks.

MAJOR UPDATE # 2: My sources are telling me there is a Barbara Brooks on Facebook, who claims to be a pediatric nurse, who is claiming that “Ellie Light” is her husband. She does not say whether or not she is married to David Axelrod. On her Facebook wall she wrote:
