Around the Tubes - September 21, 2007

  • The Mitt Romney campaign is asking their supporters to take materials provided on the Romney for President website and remix them into campaign videos. Well, the folks on the Slate political and video teams have taken this opportunity and used it to poke fun at Romney, who once equated his 5 sons' work on his campaign to the service of our soldiers in Iraq.

  • The Obama campaign has started to adopt some cultural outreach tactics. Volunteers from Bay-area schools recently set up shop outside a local music festival.
  • Millennial blogger and Yale student Zach Marks compares Democratic and Republican outreach to young voters on the campaign trail in this column over at Huffington Post.
  • Congress may have passed the College Cost Reduction Act, but it looks like increases in Pell Grants are still no sure thing.
