Pennsylvania’s High-Tech Senate Race

One of the most closely watched Senate races in the U.S. has a major presence on the Web.

Pennsylvania ’s Rick Santorum boasts a campaign Web site  full of interactive and multimedia features, an action center, and a well-attended blog. The Santorum camp has also launched a high-tech attack against leading democratic challenger, Bob Casey, with the Web site which slams Casey for neglecting his role as state treasurer while on the campaign trail.

What about Bob? Challenger Bob Casey has a Web site of his own with all the main ingredients of a good campaign site – visitors can volunteer, donate, sign a petition and get involved.

Noticeably absent on Casey’s site is a blog. Maybe he feels he doesn’t need one since the blogosphere is keeping a close eye on this race – and the whereabouts of Santorum, including photos of his house and where he gets his AM coffee. The Pennsylvania politics Web site http://www.politicspa.com lists more than 80 blogs, and many of those monitor the Senate race from all angles. Other person-specific blogs have a clear slant such as: http://santorumexposed.com/, http://www.dumpsantorum.com/, http://www.caseyisaliberal.com
