The RNC's got a Facebook page?
Yes, we started it five weeks ago. We're going to break 2,000 members soon.
A lot has been said about the gap between the Republicans and Democrats online. Are Republicans behind on the Web right now?
The operative used is "now." Look at how fluid the Internet is and how quickly things change. And we can't just focus on MySpace, YouTube, Facebook. My history with the Internet is with the portal space, with MSN and Yahoo. So to me, the question is, why are we focused on three or four sites and a list of blogs when we still need to figure out the value of portals in the political process? Yahoo Groups, for all intents and purposes, was the original MySpace.
So the Republicans are not behind?
I won't concede that yet.
