Dems and Republicans: June 2008 Archives

Campaign funding

It's been an eventful week, hasn't it? I guess the wait is on now for Hillary Clinton's official concession speech tomorrow at noon.

Earlier this week, I had an interesting conversation with Dr. Mel Kulbicki, a Penn State York political science professor whom I often call when I'm looking for cogent analysis of national politics.

Kulbicki believes that Clinton did everything right -- by 1996 and 2000 standards. She swooped in early and traded on her party establishment credentials to pick up all the big donors.

What she didn't count on was the rapidity at which the very nature of campaigning is changing, rendering effective techniques from just a few years back as passe as the megaphone.
