The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee has launched a very clever and cheap negative campaigning tactic.  At We Couldn't Make This Stuff Up--Republicans in Their Own Words, is a US map which, if you click on a State, opens quotations of stupid, outrageous, or goofy things the GOP Senate candidate in that State has said.  You can even sign up to get text message updates of candidates working against themselves. One thing that seems attractive about this text subscription is that you'll (presumably) get only the juicy bits that you can laugh at or get outraged about, and can enjoy passing on virally without including a lot dull stuff and, dare one hope, without a DSCC plea for money.  Presumably, this doesn't reach directly swing voters in large numbers, although they may get the quotations virally, but I would think this has great potential to help energize the base.  Me?  I've turned off the text message service on my mobile phone.
