→‎Scott Brown and social media: I don't think any of them, however, have embraced Facebook as their primary platform as much as Obama and Palin have.
Line 15: Line 15:     
I have never been a big fan of the Republican politician [[Scott Brown]] in terms of all his policies which is not surprising as Massachusetts  Republicans are more liberal.[http://www.amconmag.com/blog/2010/01/18/the-not-so-conservative-politics-of-scott-brown/]  Nevertheless, he was the lesser of two evils and I am glad he beat the Democrat. More to the point, he did manage to win an election and in January 0f 2010 it has reported he had over 140,000 Facebook supporters.[http://techrepublican.com/blog/facebooks-permanent-place-politics] Given the younger generations growing influence as the baby boomers, Silent Generation and Greatest Generation age and pass on, I don't think politicians can ignore social networking websites.

Those are interesting observations about a few politicians.  I don't think any of them, however, have embraced [[Facebook]] as their primary platform as much as [[Obama]] and [[Palin]] have.  Also, note that the long-term effects of the above efforts are not contrary to what the entry suggests:  DeMint has not run for president, Gingrich is running but is struggling to gain credibility, and Brown's popularity may have been short-term, just as the entry observes.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 19:49, 5 June 2011 (EDT)
