Where Political Influence Is Only a Keyboard Away
More than ever, the Internet gives people a connection -- and a voice -- in campaigns.

NEW YORK -- Every morning, before her 5-year-old daughter wakes up, Leah Faerstein sits down at her computer in her East Village apartment and logs onto Democratic presidential candidate Wesley K. Clark's Web site.
A few years ago, Faerstein was politically indifferent and didn't own a computer. But now the stay-at-home mom spends hours a day on Clark's Web log, or blog, munching on chocolate Clark bars and chatting with other aficionados of the former NATO commander.

Recently, she was thrilled to hear Clark use a phrase about democracy that she had suggested on the blog.
"I'm not going to take the credit," said Faerstein, 50. "But I think it's osmosis. There's a back and forth between us and the campaign. I couldn't feel more connected."
Faerstein is one of hundreds of thousands of people who have turned to the Internet this year to participate in national politics, relying on a technology that is playing a central role in the way citizens are experiencing the 2004 presidential campaign.

2. Did you ask her if she minded if you posted on article naming her by name?

Considering what's gone in here in the past day, I wouldn't be very happy about that if I were her.

9. It's always good to see a DU'er in the news

That a New York DU'er is in a California paper attests to the power of DU'ers.

I just checked Robbedvoter's blog on the CCN. There's a person there who claims the article was how he knew about the CCN and signed up there. Way to go, Robbedvoter!
