Pretty amazing to see how quickly the new media/technology teams behind all of the U.S. politicians and interest groups are able to react and attack these days.
The latest I have seen being the Michael Moore - Fred Thompson "debate" involving (as far as I can tell) Cuba, Mr. Moore's new movie Sicko, and cigars.
Former Senator Thompson offered some criticisms of Mr. Moore's movie, particularly a scene shot in Cuba,in the article, Paradise Island, at the National Review Online.
Mr. Moore apparently responded with some allegations suggesting Senator Thompson enjoyed smoking Cuban cigars.
Who knows?
Whatever the truths or falsehoods, both parties are reaping the rewards the publicity it is bringing. And, the people trying to get Senator Thompson to Run for President probably aren't exactly crying either.
Check out the latest, Senator Thompson's clip in response to Mr. Moore's "Cuban cigars" remarks:
I'll say one thing, these guys and their video teams are certainly creative and I am sure more is on the way.
No wonder Google acquired YouTube...
