Republicans Be Warned: The Hills Have Eyes
DailyKos and Readers Are Watching Closely
One thing that keeps coming up in discussions of the "YouTube Election" is the peril of "macaca moments." For those who've been living under a rock -- or out in the sticks with a dial-up connection -- a "macaca moment" refers to a politician saying or doing something stupid and having that something stupid caught on video. (The original inspiration can be found here.) The video is then uploaded to YouTube for half the internet audience to see. With any luck (good or bad depends on which campaign you're working for), the mainstream media will then pick up the item and run with it on the evening news -- or at the top of every hour for a 72-hour period.
