Ford Campaign Begins with Blog Astroturfing
(05/26/05) -- As many people read today's newspapers announcing the candidacy of Representative Harold Ford Jr. to the United States Senate, they will also get positive talking points from Tennessee's political blogs- not because Tennessee bloggers are particularly enthusiastic about Ford, but because Ford supporters have blasted the comments of major Tennessee political blogs with comments echoing the same talking points.
He seems to be employing comment spam. When will these guys fire their consultants and start working the grassroots???????????????????
