Absolutely. The Internet has really begun to change the face of it.
there are more varying viewpoints that people have access to. For now
though, TV is still the medium of choice and that's very expensive. I
hope that the Internet has the same impact that TV has had, but I think
that the impact will be a better one. I always think back to the
Nixon-Kennedy debates and the reports that came out afterwards and how
different they were. Those that watched the debate on TV thought that
Kennedy did better, and those that heard it on the radio thought that
Nixon did better. BTW, I was not around then. I remember the
discussions in history and communications classes. You would be really
old if you were around then ;^)

Well I see where you guys are coming from, but I think this is one of
the
things the internet is changing. Especially now that internet users
are the
majority in the USA. Getting your message out is no longer expensive.
Sign's, ads, buttons, bumper stickers, etc do not contribute to
voter's
making an informed decision about who to vote for either. Good
riddance I
say.
