candidate blogs

Here's some video and a few links for a lazy Saturday:

• Ever wonder just what it is, exactly, that ActBlue does around here? My buddy Nate explains it all in this three minute video (embedding disabled. Again. What's up with that?).
• Bill Mahr handles O'Reilly easily in this interview, but goes for the easy joke and takes a sideswipe at young voters. WTF? Crooks and Liars has the video.
• In an appeal to us young'ns, Connecticut is going to create downloadable videos explaining the ins and outs of new optical scan voting machines. I appreciate the effort, but somehow don't see this as really working out . . .
• Election Geek puts their finger on something that's been bothering me for a long time. I was an avid reader of the Dean Nation weblog in 2003 and 2004, but now II no longer do more than skim the candidate blogs. Election Geek lays out the reason why in this Mad-Libs style post.
