Fight The Smears
It’s been interesting observing how the Obama campaign has so effectively communicated to their constituents via their ever so resourceful website. In the past, the use of the web in political campaigns have been based at best purely for informational press junkets. Seeing how the Obama campaign not only utilizes modern web-compliant tools in their use of embeddable video, allowance of comments and open invitations for individual campaign monetary contributions; it is nothing short than refreshing to see how they combat the smear wars by specifically taking each issue and offering their counterarguments using youtube clips and indepth subject studies of the people involved with the rumor mills. Take a look at their interactive “Fight The Smears” chart. Simply brilliant.
