Mad grab for Keystone state
In recent days, both parties campaigns have sent important figures to stump for their candidates in Pennsylvania with Sarah Palin making several appearances for McCain and Senator Carl Levin of Michigan stumping for Obama in the key Bucks County district where the congressional seat is all but assured to Patrick Murphy. Pennsylvania will also be receiving visits from Hillary Clinton where she will be speaking at several rallies and townhall meetings.
Another important item to point out is the impact of new methods of reaching out to voters. Myspace and Facebook have become king in terms of reaching out to younger voters, in ways that have never been done before. They have captured the attention of major news sources as NBC News as they have sprouted the Myspace Impact project which goes out of its way to ensnare the otherwise uninterested college students. It posts the concentrated highlights of debates and important speeches by the candidates as well as the option to view them in whole so viewers who might not sit down to watch a 90 minute debate can watch a 3 minute highlight reel and at least make a somewhat informed opinion as opposed to an opinion that is based solely upon other peoples opinions.
