5:08 am barbaranixon: @drgilpin I was surprised, too. My DH called it a "twitttergag." #NMAS09

5:13 am LeeAase: Blankley thinks the Internet will weaken political parties much as TV has because organizing can happen without organizations #nmas09
5:13 am barbaranixon: Tony Blankley: The Internet will weaken political parties, just like TV weakened the parties in earlier days. #nmas09
5:14 am rickmurray: Bob Shrum and Tony Blankley talking politics as day 2 of #nmas09 kicks off
5:15 am LeeAase: Blankley: This is the first technology that lets people move away from mass communication to personalized communication #nmas09

5:15 am cahickerson: Congress is digital, but better at sending than receiving. #NMAS09
5:16 am dquack: The Internet will allow more customization in political messages. #nmas09

5:18 am barbaranixon: Bob Shrum: Obama has defied the traditional thoughts about overexposure. He's out there ALL the time. #nmas09
5:19 am amandachapel: @cahickerson "Congress is digital, but better at sending than receiving. #NMAS09" Our system is presentation based. It's rooted in property.

5:28 am rickmurray: Shrum: getting healthcare reform thru is going to demand Obama spend some of his political capital. #nmas09
5:28 am dquack: Blankley: Obama has to be out there; there is no one else to carry message. So far Bidden has not proved a useful communication tool #nmas09
5:28 am amandachapel: #nmas09 NOTE: "He [Obama] needs to get out there and make his case." That's "presentation," NOT virtual conversational schmooze.
