Twitter Goes Political

Abcnews.com has a three page article on Twitter on the campaign trail.
I have a distaste for twitter, which I made clear here in my review of the social networking site.
One of the reasons I am highlighting this article is some of twitter bashing that goes on in it, including this gem:
Media writer Simon Dumenco wrote in a recent Advertising Age article
that Twitter “makes the ‘conversation’ within the Web ‘community’ even
more inane, piecemeal and ultra fleeting.”
Although I heavily dislike twitter, this article does offer a point of view on how it is used by politicians and it could be deployed by some people out there. In the interest of trying to present you with the most information I figured I would link to this article so you can see it in use.
