Mitt Romney, Welcome to Politics in a YouTube Era
September 18th, 2012
Howdy Mitt, not sure if you’ve noticed (oh wait, in theory you have), but we’re living in an era in which the camera is ALWAYS on. Here are just a few Epolitics.com articles on the nature of politics in an era in which a candidate’s EVERY utterance can be recorded and published online for all of us to enjoy. Note that the oldest date back to October of 2006, just a couple of months after we launched.
