Presidential Web Strategies
As the fight for the next President of the United States heats up, I thought it might be interesting to take a look at the various Web strategies that have had an impact (positively and negatively) on the candidates over the past year.
So, after a little digging, here are some of my favorite articles and sites that cover the various Web strategies, teams, and tactics of the various presidential candidates.
