Candidates Vie for Votes on MySpace

Posted on May 14, 2007

In a sign of the times (or perhaps a sign of being slightly behind the times, depending on whom you ask), many of the 2008 presidential candidates, including Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Mitt Romney and John McCain, have established MySpace pages in an effort to reach the nation’s young people. Make sure to compare and contrast their profile photo choices as well as the comments from their networked friends!

Links to candidates’ pages:

Hillary Clinton

Barack Obama

John McCain

Mitt Romney

Dennis Kucinich

I hope either McCain or Giuliani win the race for votes on MYSPACE, better yet, they should run as a ticket, McCain/Giuliani or Giuliani/McCain, it doesn’t matter.

If either of them becomes president of MYSPACE, it will be quite apropos, since they are each egomaniacal freaks, and it will be much better having them as virtual presidents, in pixel form, than running around in the real world fu*king things up.
