Wired News: Longing for a Blogging Candidate.

Larry Biddle (also quoted in my Senate web campaign post-mortem) tells Daniel Terdiman that candidates are fearful and ignorant of blogging. 

The article spends some time recapping our BloggerCon elections session, and ends with me saying that candidate bloggers will begin at lower levels than Senate and White House campaigns.

To which I would only add that the local candidate bloggers have already started to win.

NYT:

Sgt. Sam Williams said, "I wish I could see down the street."

But these marines did see a black flag pop up all at once above a water tower about 100 yards away, then a second flag somewhere in the gloaming above a rooftop. And the shots began, in a wave this time, as men bobbed and weaved through alleyways and sprinted across the street...

...The flags are the insurgents' answer to two-way radios, their way of massing the troops and - in a tactic that goes back at least as far as Napoleon - concentrating fire on an enemy.
