Different takes on different parts of the web.
This Washington Post headline:
“On the Web, Supporters of McCain Wage An Uphill Battle: Republican’s Online Presence Lags Far Behind Obama’s”
versus ….
This Financial Times article:
This evening, at Mrs Clinton’s first joint meeting with Mr Obama since the campaign began, the former first lady will renew her call for the party to unify behind Mr Obama - a theme that will be echoed tomorrow when they appear for a rally in the town of Unity in New Hampshire.
But a highly vocal minority of Mrs Clinton’s supporters have chosen to ignore her plea altogether. Under the umbrella group, Just Say No Deal, diehard Clintonites have set up more than 100 anti-Obama websites in the last 20 days, most of them boiling with indignation.
Some, such as I Own My Vote and No Quarter, are self-explanatory. Others, such as Done - Democrats Over Nominating Elitists - and Puma - Party Unity My Ass - choose memorable acronyms. With nicknames such as Barky, Nobama and Oblahblah, none is complimentary towards its party’s nominee.
