The internet campaign that won







The internet campaign that won

The internet campaign that won 02/18/2004 01:24 PM

The "internet-based" campaign that won. Nickolas bought ads on 11 mostly left-leaning blogs, including Daily Kos, Political Wire and Eschaton, planning to make up the money out of his own salary if the ads didn't pay for themselves. He needn't have worried. By the end of the day, the campaign had made back its money and then some. The following Monday, Nickolas showed Chandler 65 e-mails that had piled up since the previous night. "I said, 'Oh my god, these are all contributions,'" Nickolas remembered saying to Chandler. "And he said, 'Since when?' and I said, 'Since last night.' He was in disbelief that people around the country would care about this race."

The Last Internet Campaign?


The Last Internet Campaign? 02/15/2004 09:23 AM
Clay's coda for the Dean campaign hits the nail on the head:

"We are seeing the last internet campaign. The advantage of having the Dean story play so big is that everyone was watching. None of this was lost on Karl Rove, or on Terry McAuliffe. Given what Dean was able to do with internet tools, they will become a key part of the fall campaign, and so completely integral by by 2008 that they won’t rate more than a mention, much less a cover story in the NY Times magazine."

The interesting question, though, is what a successful Internet campaign would look like.  Dean showed how the Net can take an obscure candidate and vault him to the head of the pack.  What would a real Internet campaign by an establishment figure like John Kerry -- or George W. Bush -- look like?  We'll see beta versions this fall, but they will almost certainly be copies of Dean's techniques rather than real innovations.

I have a hunch that the first Internet campaign to truly mobilize voters on a mass scale (as opposed to fundraising and core supporters) won't start around a candidate.  One of the key, and under-appreciated, elements of Dean's early success was MoveOn.org.  MoveOn never actually endorsed Dean, but its tactics and worldview were aligned with the Dean campaign. Its early online poll was the first demonstration of Dean's "front-runner" status.  MoveOn, thanks to help from friends like George Soros, will be significant player in the Fall campaign.  Yet MoveOn wasn't started to elect a President; it was started to defend a President (Clinton) against impeachment efforts.

What mot people really support are causes, not candidates.  The cause many Dean supporters were passionate about was defeating President Bush, and that ultimately came back to haunt Howard Dean in the form of "electability."  The power of the Net in politics, as Clay and others have eloquently written, is its ability to lower coordination barriers among large numbers of people.  Thus, it's most effective where people already support a cause. 

It's hard to remember now, but back in the late 1980s and early 1990s, there were two such causes: health care reform and deficit reduction.  The health care debate was co-opted by the traditional players, but on the deficit side, the Concord Coalition did an amazing job of mobilizing popular anger, largely among young people, about the ruinous course of our fiscal policies.  And they did it without any of the Internet-based tools groups like MoveOn are exploiting today. 

So yes, we've seen the last Internet campaign, but not the first Internet President.  That will have to wait for a movement that starts outside the existing political boxes, and a candidate able to make the most of it.
