Run Better Campaigns!

It is so frustrating to read all of these articles about how great the Bush campaign was run and how poorly the Kerry campaign was run. Nothing was coordinated, there didn't appear to be any real strategy, just poorly, poorly run. The few ground reports are bad, but I think most of us saw it all along with the lack of message from the Kerry campaign the whole campaign. It's amazing to think that the Bush team had to run a nearly flawless campaign just to beat a completely incompetent Kerry team. But for Democrats there are a lot of lessons here, and I think it all highlights how important an effective use of new technologies are going be in modern campaign, and the more the technology can bring politics back to the retail politics of old, the more effective they are going to be.
