Select A Candidate catches on

Posted at 12:17 PM on October 16, 2007 by Bob Collins (1 Comments)

I've got phone messages from columnists who want to do a story about Select A Candidate, I've got emails from stations that want to add it to their Web site, and now I see a TV station in Iowa has dedicated a whole report to it (Watch).

Since Select A Candidate has been around since 2000, I can only come to the conclusion that the nation's news agenda is being set by Howard Stern. Ugh.

Congratulations Bob & SAC for catching on, with all the pain & suffering that such entails. Perhaps it is because you are the only media outlet in the country reporting on what the candidates' positions are.
