Genevieve Sponsler caught this post in her daily trolling of Voices without Votes (a very cool site that tracks foreign opinion about Campaign 08). In it, a South African expat living in Ireland comments on the style and effectiveness of the three remaining candidates’ websites. Highest points go to simplicity.
Assessment of McCain’s site:
I have to say it looks like a very action orientated website with lots of talk about his healthcare plan while also taking snipes at the democrats.
Assessment of Clinton’s site:
Way too crowded, would take me 5 min to figure out where to go.
You know what, I think I have come to the conclusion that whoever designed the Clinton website must have more than two eyes because it took me 5 minutes to find where I wanted to go. Even from the thumbnail, you can see the exhaustive detail on the site but Hillary doesn’t focus on the issues here. The first thing you see on her site is her ne...

A couple of days ago, I recieved an email newsletter from Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council recounting a rather chilling story about the horrific power of government to kill when life becomes insubordinate to the state rather than to God: Newspapers from cities as far away as Melbourne, Australia are anxiously awaiting word on a Uyghur woman in China, six months pregnant with her third child. According to local reports, government officials tracked Arzigul Tursun down in her v... more
The 2009 Governor’s Race is already heating up , and while McAuliffe and Moran battle it out, Creigh Deeds portends to split the difference and benefit immensely.
The first shots were fired by the Moran camp as they released a collection of press clippings highlighting the icy reaction McAuliffe’s overtures to candidacy raised in the Virginia political press. Moran’s moves are just the starting gun.
McAuliffe uuber-spokesman Mo Elithee hit with the classic "curiously n... more
I had the supreme misfortune of watching the ever moronic, self-important Mr. Tingle-Up-His-Leg-Matthews interview Chris Hitchens of Vanity Fair, and Peter Beinart of Time Magazine in reference to the buzz about Senator Hillary Clinton being offered the position of Secretary of State in Barack Obama’s incoming administration.
Let’s put it this way, one should never watch Hardball while eating.
A little background, for those who may have tuned in late. Chris Matthews was recently ridic... more

Here’s another perspective on technology and Campaign 08. Scott Chacon is a Bay Area computer programmer with an abiding interest in “open source politics” — which he defines as “the idea that openness and transparency through technology can improve our political system.” He put that idea to the test in his own 2006 bid for a Congressional seat; he didn’t win, but he learned some things.
In this 2008 campaign, Chaco... more

This picture by trialkat was taken at a Fair Tax rally in Jacksonville, FL, where Mike Huckabee played his bass. The boy is holding a dollar bill autographed by Huckabee, and the photo seemed a fitting adieu to the candidate, who, after last night’s primaries, conceded the GOP nomination to John McCain. This leaves all hopes of abolishing the IRS in the hands of Ron Paul .
It also saddles Ron Paul with responsibility for the evolution/creation debate... more

John McCain clinched the Republican nomination last night, but the buzz belonged to Hillary Clinton for winning Ohio, Texas, and Rhode Island.
Ohio blogger The Critic explains the vote he cast for Clinton yesterday:
Today I was up by six thirty, dressed by six forty, and out the door to vote in the Ohio Democratic Primaries. The sidewalks were so slick from the freezing rain, that I walked in the street. Our polling place w... more
A Vermonter and self-described “housewife and homeschooling mom” had this to say last night after watching the Vermont primary results on TV:
On the Channel 17 exit interviews, when asked what comment she would write on her ballot for her elected officials, if she could, one woman said, “I would tell them to get out of Iraq and try to do something with the economy.”
Funny, it is the exact opposite for me. I would tell them to get out of the economy and try to do something ... more
