Obama's political e-mail list tops 13 million names, a digital force that the incoming White House can tap to push for his legislation, tamp down critics or bolster popular support. It's also a way for Obama to reach into every state, every city, and every neighborhood.
A study released Tuesday found that a quarter of Obama voters said they would continue to work online to support the new administration. The nonpartisan Pew Internet and American Life Project also found 62 percent of Obama's voters say they would ask others to support Obama's policies.
Welcome to the Democrats' new permanent campaign, one planned online and executed on Main Street.
If it works the way Obama's top lieutenants plan, the White House would marshal hundreds of thousands of phone calls within hours if it looked as if the president-elect were losing a policy battle. With the click of a keyboard, Obama's aides could ask supporters to flood the phone lines of Congress, making it untenable to ignore the clamor.
That, at least, is the idea.
Obama's unmatched database gives his incoming administration a clear advantage over its Republican rivals ...

Philip Elliot is a naive child - an idiot - if he thinks Obama plans on governing as anything other than a politician from teh Daly Machine.
Nothing preventing us from doing the same. Nothing save for our own inaction.
The “ nonpartisan Pew Internet”.........No need to read any further.
Spot on.
So everybody here should sign up, and more than once (home email, work email. etc) so we won’t be left out!

“if he thinks Obama plans on governing as anything other than a politician from teh Daly Machine.”
Obama’s main goal will be to strengthen the party, he does not care about the nation as long as it’s run by his minions.
I've run into some 0bamunist Sympathizers even here at the FR.
It sure would be fun to get that list and spam it with Birth Certificate information.
Q: How is this any different than governing by poll numbers alone?
A: A cherry picked database
Early evidence, already in, shows that Obama’s e-mail list is not responding to his post election e-mails. The goal for these folks was to get him elected. Once that happened, they went back to their iPods. They have asked for money and got next to nothing. They have asked for participation (crickets). They have kept folks abreast of the innauguration plans only to be hit with a slew of folks asking to be removed from the mailing list.
I have the address of every home owner in America at my disposal. That doesn’t give me an army. They wanted him elected. They got it. Except for the afternoon of the innauguration, they intend to sleep and expect him to solve their problems no questions asked.
End of story.
His biggest problem with his “list” is when they turn on him...and they will...trust me...they will.
Rush Limbaugh has a number BIGGER than 13 mill.
It’s a minority that BHO via his appointments is shrinking . . as he has pissed them off.
Blacks in Harlem say they support Obama,
even when interviewer gives McCain policies as Obama’s
