Well political campaigns are in the midst of a great technology driven change right now. The party that has a better handle on its direction will have the advantage.
I agree with you on both points, 100%. I fear that Obama's political machine may have a decided technological edge, and can only hope that the opposition can get a handle on the fact that politics are not only driven by facts, history, and ideas, but personalities.
