Gregor notes, that democrat US presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich also startet his blog. Like Gregor, I think that having politicians with frequently updated blogs are a welcome change.
Technologically much further ahead is US presidential candidate Howard Dean with several, longer running blogs. He also uses meetup.com and other tools quite effectively. I think that his campaign is a very good example for a grassroots internet marketing campaign. Dana Blankenhorn has a good summary and commentary in his article A Visit to Deanistan. If you know someone in politics, then please make her or him read this!
