So everybody knows by now, the audacious campaign driven by Barack Obama. This was the first time that a US Presidential candidate truly embraced the power of the internet to gain support. It has been said that 90% of Obama's funds were donations under $200 - much of this support was through online donations.I've been receiving emails from the Obama '08 people for several months now... each email talks about the need for real change and how each of us can contribute to a new America. And right there down at the bottom of each online mailing is a big "Donate Now" button.
Where has Hillary Clinton's campaign geniuses been in terms of utilizing the internet? Why hasn't she shadowed the success of Obama by launching an all out virtual campaign? She has "Xeroxed" so many of Obama's ideas already - first he was for change... then Hillary is the real change... first Obama said, "Yes We Can"... then Hillary says, "Yes We Will"... first Obama has people passing out at his rallies... then Hillary has "someone" pass out during one of hers.
I am not supporting either candidate, I am just reporting on what has transpired as of late. Even the Hillary camp must be saying a collective "Doh!"
