Politicians Drop Saxophone, Look To MySpace
Mr. Luksgudnasuit, running for office this fall, is looking for a leg up in his freshman campaign. He intends to focus on the largely absent young voter crew, a group of freshmen for the freshman. Where could he reach the impressionable, the passionate, and those who haven't quite developed a healthy distrust of politicians? Oh! MySpace!
According to a report from the Associated Press, politicians are already looking to MySpace as a campaign stop. And if they like you, they'll set up pages on your behalf, complete with extensive friends lists.
"If you're looking to find somebody who's going to spend 22 hours putting up signs for you, I'd go to MySpace," a political consultant told the AP.
"It's (like) the soda fountains of the 50s," said Republican consultant Rod Shealy, who was immediately scorned for being an unbelievable cornball and comparing MySpace to anything their grandparents would have enjoyed.
Even Hillary Clinton gets a tribute with a page naming her the President of the United States.
Is it cold in here? I just felt a chill.
YouTube is also becoming a user-media target, the article said, as the Governator and other political types turn to the explosive video site to further their agendas. YouTube is also a popular destination for activist campaigns. The SaveTheInternet movement and its supporters submit videos on Net Neutrality on a regular basis.
