The Daily Beast’s Meghan McCain talks to Republicans about the party’s crippling technology disconnect—and the new conservative Web zealots who can save the GOP.

This is a general interest list. We cover everything from the sublime to the ridiculous.
If you want on or off this ping list, please FReepmail me.
I get the internet. That’s how I post!
I dunno why. I’m good on the computer but I cannot stand Facebook and Myspace. Seems like a waste of time. All about Twitter though.
Because they can’t log in?
“The Internet is really, really great—”
Just how many of these “internets” are there? I mean, there would have to be thousands to make any substantial impact.
This is a load...I bet that conservatives are more internet and computer savvy than libs.
Add to that—we own AM talk radio...
>>the new conservative Web zealots who can save the GOP<<
Is he talking about us?
Republicans need to reboot.
I’ve been on the Internet since 1993. I think I “get it” by now. Sheesh!
Well, I didn’t invent the internet like Al Gore but I think I can manage this internet thingy..
Articles like this need to be stapled to the butts of ever GOPers in D.C. (except for those three dumb@zz RINO senatards)
The young people on our side sometimes feel they need to worry more about whether they have the right colored tie or own a long enough dress than whether their natural talents for utilizing the web are wanted. Those kids need to be brought in an worshiped because 2010 is going to depend big time on what they know.
Al Gore invented the internet. That’s why the Dems have a huge head start.
“This is a load...I bet that conservatives are more internet and computer savvy than libs.”
There is a difference between knowing how to use the internet, and having the internet work for you.
And our side hasn’t made the internet work for us nearly as well as the libs have.
Doesn't happen often over there.
(By the way, I was taken to task being FReeper reddit users for calling reddit another cesspool of liberal waste, but so far, my experience over there hasn't been much better.)
I like her and I read her “blogette” during the campaign, but turning the mirror around, she didn’t use her own position to do anything to advance the issue she now raises. Her blog was basically gushy gee-whiz comments and back-stage photos of the families, which was nice but hardly going to impact the outcome.
Maybe a good step for this 24 year old newly-minted Republican would be to show ‘em how it’s supposed to be done. We know Obama got this right, now there’s no excuse for not copying what’s been proven to be effective.
That’s crazy. I’ve been looking on the internets for years.
Thanks VanDK I see what you mean.
We are not “get in their faces” to be heard either.
We tend to be polite, honest, believe in live and let live
and that good will always (eventually) triumph over evil.
