The Google Constituency

You do not have to look farther than their blogs to see a striking example of the difference between the Republican Party and the Democratic party.

Let us start with the DNC's blog:

Nothing striking, just the first of several blogs today.

Now for the GOP:

RNC Blog

This is the most recent blog they have, from as super duper recently as February 18th. A whole freakin' month and a half ago. Chairman Steele, you are doing a fantastic job of pumping new life into the Republican Party.

This highlights such a stark difference between the two parties. The Republican Party still has no clue that we have entered the Youtube Election Era. John McCain's campaign suffered severely because they did not see this. You could also call it the Google Constituency. The use of the internet, or for you GOP'ers, the super-inter-highway, for message delivery is something that has escaped the Republican party. It is not just about their blog being as inactive as my lazy old dog, that is merely symbolic of their refusal to put the slightest bit of effort into online organizing.

Teabagger Chris Krok Helps Define Hypocrisy

cross-posted at DailyKos

This, is a direct quote from Chris Krok, admitted teabagger, while on Luo Dobbs Tonight, aired March 24th.
Fix this country, not run it into the ground and stop worrying about basketball.
This, is obviously directed at President Obama. Of course, Krok is furious that an elected official would dare take a few minutes to connect with average voters by describing his march madness bracket. I guess he did not notice this on the home page at RNC.org:
RNC March Madness Bracket

So, our President, who has undeniably been more engaged, proposed bigger plans, and achieved more than almost any President in such a short time, needs to focus on the economy more and on basketball less. However, the GOP, whose website does not present a single budget proposal, has plenty of time to worry about basketball.

I cannot wait to hear his next show, when he lambastes the RNC for spending time on such trivial subject matter! (snark)
