Dear Rock the Vote…

These leaders’ blogs aren’t blogs. Blogs allow readers to comment on content. Blogs are a two way street. You can come onto my blog and let me know I’m a twat. You might influence me, you might not. But I’ll let you say it.
This is just top-down press release style pointlessness. You’re supposed to be engaging with voters. Blogs are a great way to do this. These aren’t blogs.

    Camouflaged old style press releases perhaps with some buttons that link to cool young people sites like Bebo! Wow, the guys at Rock the Vote has really open a genuine forum where people can contribute and cooperate to rock the vote … no wait, it’s all closed to outside contributors and it is being fed to us by some hired PR company for purposes unknown.
