Joe Trippi: Campaign Strategies and John McCain's Crisis

Sunday night's NOW program on PBS interviewed Joe Trippi. Trippi was running Edwards' campaign before Edwards suspended the campaign. The interview and the web page offers several interesting points.

First, a comparison of the top-down campaign of Hillary Clinton vs. the bottom-up campaign of Barack Obama.

Second, the potential impact on governance differences between the two candidates if they win derived from their campaign methodology.

Third, the corner John McCain may have painted himself into on campaign finance and the irony of that position given his advocacy of campaign finance reform.

Fourth, an authoritative description of 527 groups and their impact on electoral politics.
