USATODAY.com - The presidential contest is, of course, the Olympics of political competitions. In that spirit, USA TODAY talked to candidates, strategists, pollsters, analysts and scholars to develop an admittedly subjective list of the 10 toughest things to do in national politics - a sort of election decathlon.

Joe Trippi - A Revolution in American
politics? 02/10/2004 02:56 AM
I had a great day at the Digital Democracy Teach-in, in spite of losing several hours of sleep to the hotel bed, which has the firmness of jello that's been sitting outside all afternoon at a picnic. I'm too tired to do justice to the day, but I thought I'd post a few notes. First up was Joe Trippi, until a few weeks ago Dean's campaign manager, who gave a great speech. It is amazing how different the blog reports of the speechblog reports of the speech are from the media reports of the same speech. The blog reports suffer from lack of analysis or context -- in some cases they are no more than inaccurate transcripts. The media reports suffer from their need to have a hook in the first sentence, the space constraints, and the focus on the game of politics. But I digress. About a third of Trippi's speech was red meat stump speech, a third a defense of his management of the Dean campaign, and about a third a disquisition on the changing nature of American politics. Trippi is very charismatic, and gave a rousing speech that was full of hope about politics, although a little apocalyptic at the same time. It is easy to see how he commanded the loyalty of so many volunteers. I don't entirely buy his hypothesis that the Dean campaign represented a sea change in American politics, but I don't discount it either. It bears thinking on. The fact that Dean raised so much money, in such a short time, from so many small volunteers, is amazing. The openness of the campaign to bottoms-up ideas, the fact that the campaign appears to have recruited lots of people into the political process, and the number of voters they turned out (many of whom in the end didn't vote for Dean) are all very impressive. At the very least, Dean deserves credit for changing the terms of the debate, and getting the Democrats to take on the Cheney/Rove administration, instead of running "me too but softer" campaigns. Best quotes: Broadcast democracy is not working. There were no real debates in political sphere or in the mass media on starting the war on Iraq or on the Patriot act. The only real debates happened on the net. American politics is now a race to raise money to buy TV time. Politics today - it's...

A presidential flop

A presidential flop 08/31/2004 03:17 PM
At the "GOP Marketplace" at the New York Hilton, a pro-Bush bazaar of sorts, one entrepreneur sells the inevitable $15 John Kerry flip-flops, actual thong sandals with his "for" positions scribbled on one shoe and his "against" positions on the other. Flip-flipping tchotchkes abound here. There are flip-flop playing cards. Little flip-flop pins for ladies' sweaters. You get the idea. But the delegates having fun with the Kerry "flip-flop" cliche at this convention have run into a snag: Their own candidate, sold everywhere here as "resolute," "steady," and "decisive," can't seem to figure out whether we can win the "war on terror."

Presidential Blogs at BloggerCon

Presidential Blogs at BloggerCon 04/17/2004 08:46 AM

I'm leading the discussion later this morning at the BloggerCon gathering on presidential blogging. Two observations:

John Kerry campaign blog postings are signed by Dick Bell, official blogger. The George Bush campaign blog postings are signed in a corporate way, by the campaign.

On the other hand, Bush's blog seems to point outside more often -- a more Web-like thing to do.

BloggerCon: Presidential Bloggers

BloggerCon: Presidential Bloggers 04/09/2004 04:00 PM

Four years ago, almost no one would have connected the words "presidential" and "weblog" -- the very notion would have seemed bizarre. No longer. At next week's BloggerCon, I propose to look at presidential weblogs from four perspectives:

Official campaign blogs. Should candidates do their own postings (do they have time)? Are campaign blogs serving internal needs, or informing the electorate, or both? What makes a campaign blog work, or not?

Affiliated blogs. A new generation of political activists is pushing voters and money toward the campaigns. How closely tied can (or should) campaigns be to their supporters? Is central control a given, or will the authority ultimately devolve to the edges as it supposedly did in the Dean campaign, at least for a while? What are the opportunities and risks? (Even linking seems to be in play these days. Jay Rosen analyses the Daily Kos furor here.)

Commentator blogs. Political reporters are derelict if they don't read, among others, Glenn Reynolds and Josh Marshall. What effect is the new-media commentariat having on the political process?

Missing links. Do we need more bloggers who avoid commentary and focus on facts? Maybe we need more issue-oriented blogs, going way beyond the something-for-everyone position papers that candidates post on websites. How about a health-care blog where someone tracks everything the candidates say about this issue? In general, how can the blogosphere improve the political process? We're expecting several campaign bloggers (official and otherwise) to join us in Cambridge next Saturday. Remember, the session is not about what I think. It's about what we can come up with together. You can help by posting some comments here or on the BloggerCon site, and by suggesting new questions.

Because no one can make up their mind any more without the support of a computer telling them it's okay, there are now a ton of websites out there where you can answer a bunch of multiple choice questions and it will tell you who to vote for. Of course, all three "tests" linked from the article had very bad questions that painted certain issues in very black and white tones - without getting into the reasons why these issues are complex issues that can't be answered with a simple "oppose" or "favor". Also, I wonder how useful any of them are - since each one gave me very different results. Maybe that means I shouldn't vote and should leave such things up to those who do see complex issues as black and white.

Is Presidential Election Spam On The
Way?

Is Presidential Election Spam On The
Way? 09/09/2004 03:51 AM
Are you ready for that political spam? An anti-spam company is now estimating that the US presidential election will ge nerate 1.25 billion political emails this year, and notes that the campaigns already have access to 25 million email addresses. Of course, both of these claims could use further explanation. As the article goes on to note, those 25 million email addresses are often held by companies who refuse to give them to the campaigns. If that's the case, why are they included in this stat in the first place? Furthermore, the way the article is laid out, you would think that all of the messages are unwanted, but the details suggest that they're including opt-in messages from the campaigns. So, when you boil the numbers down, it's really not nearly as bad as the article makes it out to be at first. There are still likely to be some mistakes made with presidential campaign emails, but this article suggests there's a problem where there might not be any.

Every US presidential TV ad from 1952 to

Arlen sez, "This site has (I think all) of the television ads from 1952 to the present. You can view them broken down by year, the type of commercial (BackFire, Biographical, Fear, Real-people). It is interesting that, while less slick, ads haven't changed all that much, and the rhetoric seems just as strong (at least to me). It is also quite amusing to see things such as Carter's ad accusing Reagan of being a Flip-Flopper on, of all things, nuclear proliferation." Link (Thanks, Arlen!)
