In looking around the wordpress forums I found an old post that goes over an alternate method of solving what happened. those who are stuck try this
- go to http://wordpress.com/share
- log on
- Choose your site.
- disconnect your troublesome accounts
- Add the accounts and follow any prompts.
This worked for me, and I did not know about this method. This from the official jetpack author who gave the directions.
I hope this helps someone.
