The young voters' site -- produced with the agency Golin Harris in Chicago -- also features profiles on young, first-time voters, templates that allow them to craft their own political speech, and a blog, written by a youthful voter.
The producers vet the content before putting it online, though, to prevent the kind of embarrassment faced by the John Kerry presidential campaign this spring when a study showed the blogs associated with his official site were riddled with curse words and other foul language.
"We review everything before it goes online," Shimaitis said.

Major press finally reporting on how Kerry is foul-mouthed.
To: solicitor77
Actually, this was covered when it happened. The press gave it very little ink...and they bought the lie from a Kerry spokesman that their site had been "hit by a virus" which peppered their discussion forum with foul language.

Was the interview Kerry did with Rolling Stone a "virus"?

Major press finally reporting on how Kerry is foul-mouthed. Not really. Notice the weasel words: "blogs associated with...".
If I'm not mistaken, there were (are?) some instances of foul language on the official web site itself.

Nothing could possibly embarrass the left. Sewer dwellers, all.

The entire campaign is a virus on the political landscape. I thought it was more like mildew. Slimy, stinky, and can't survive when exposed to light and fresh air.

It seems the dems are simply people who swear alot. It is
a lack of manners and education. If they cannot argue about
the issue, they resort to swearing and nasty personal remarks.
Of course, as mentioned they see their candidate swearing
at people and in magazines, so I expect if he sets such
low standards why shouldn't they?
It is just a lack of having any real information about
the president, so as sheep will do, they follow their leader
and never stop to think.
