| We're going to be doing something very interesting tonight during tonight's debate, but I'll let Tim Tagaris, from the Dodd campaign explain it:
Just wanted to give a heads up on something the Dodd campaign is doing during the debate. Being a New Hampshire blog, we'd especially love your participation.
We are going to be doing a real time live-stream from inside the debate war room. You would be able to embed the stream on your blog ... just like a youtube clip.
The Deputy Campaign Manager and Policy Director (and other staffers) are going to field questions submitted throughout the debate, answering them as they come in in real-time.
Since candidates only have 60 seconds to an answer questions, maybe people want more information on why Dodd supports Reid-Feingold? Maybe there's a question not asked during the debate? Do folks want to know from our research director whose rhetoric is not matching their record? Maybe they just want to see what the war room is like during a debate.
I am going to be scanning the blogs emedding the stream on their on their sites and getting as many questions answered as possible over the course of the hour and a half. I can promise to make sure those submitted on your site are among them.
So we're going to do this, because it's frankly one of the coolest ideas I've seen in a while. For a future debate, I could imagine we'd have multiple diaries where you could wander into different candidates war rooms during the debate.
But for tonight, it's Dodd, because it's his team that grabbed the brass ring here and rethunk it.
So see you all back here tonight? (Oh, and give Tim some love for this idea below the fold). |
