Howard Dean's embrace of the Internet during his short-lived campaign for the presidency continues to have repercussions for politicians at all levels.

Eliot Spitzer, for example, announced his gubernatorial candidacy on December 7 and promptly launched his personal blog, Eliot Spitzer 2006. Within hours, more than two dozen comments had been posted at the site. (Hat tip: Micro Persuasion)
