| During the race for RNC Chair earlier this year, the incumbent Mike Duncan uttered a quote that has been difficult to forget: We have to do it in the Facebook, with the Twittering, the different technology that young people are using today.
Duncan, of course, went on to lose that race to current chair Michael Steele, perhaps in part because RNC members doubted Duncan's ability to "do it in the Facebook" and thought Steele could help bring the party's technology closer to the 21st century. After Facebook launched their new user names last week, the Democratic National Committee was quick to grab www.facebook.com/democrats to link to their official Facebook page. What about facebook.com/republicans, you ask? And you'll find the same thing for facebook.com/gop, facebook.com/rnc and facebook.com/republican. |
