MoveOn.org Horses Around In New Ad Attacking Mitt Romney
We knew this was coming. We just didn’t know whence it would come.
Now we do.
The latest concept with a capital K from MoveOn.org:
Transcript (via CNN):
My name’s Rafalca, the Romney’s dressage horse. You might have seen me executing ‘leg yields’ and ‘flying changes.’ How do I pull off such grace and athleticism while looking so good? Maybe it’s because the Romneys spend $77,000 a year on my upkeep. And after Mitt Romney repeals health care and ships your jobs overseas, I daresay your life won’t be nearly as pampered as mine. After all, you’re not one of his horses.
Mr. Ed is spinning in his grave (which is not easy to do when you have four legs).

This Is Kind Of Scary
From mediabistro’s Morning Media Newsfeed:
mediabistro.com tweets:
@mediabistro #mbchats Does a newspaper paywall make you subscribe or click away?
@michelewells Click away. I’ll find the same info elsewhere.
@D_Alpher I can’t click away fast enough when I encounter a newspaper paywall.
@smaloy Click away. The vast majority of newspapers aren’t offering content unique enough for a paywall.
@lamonbrooks I immedi8ly click away. I don’t want (or need) 2 pay 4 my news. Let the sponsors foot the costs.
@lizdeutermann Click away. Hate to say it but I can usually get the same story for free somewhere else.
What’s scary about that? Four of those five responses come from people in the media business. Which means newspapers can’t even hang on to their kissin’ cousins.
That’s a very bad sign indeed.

An Appdate On Mitt Romney’s VP Announcement App
Yesterday the hardworking staff noted that the Romney campaign had introduced an app “that will allow users to sign up to be the first to learn the identity of Mitt’s #2.”
At the same time, the Obama campaign introduced a new app that, according to Politico’s Morning Score, “gives every supporter the same opportunities to get involved that they would find in a field office, such as finding local phone banks and volunteer events, and being able to canvass neighborhoods directly using their smartphones.”
Well, the early returns are in, and it’s a landslide victory for Romney.

Romney App Crushes Obama’s In App Store
Source: itunes.apple.com
Both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama launched iPhone apps this morning, and the presumptive Republican nominee’s is blowing the president’s out of the water.
On the iTunes App Store’s rankings of top free apps, the Romney app, Mitt’s VP — designed to notify users of Romney’s running mate pick — is leading the Obama campaign’s redesigned grassroots organizing app.
The Romney campaign pointed out their lead as a sign of buzz for their candidate and his impending decision — which has been the one bit of news capable of consistently penetrating several weeks of bad headlines.
