Welcome to Hype for America

Hello, and welcome to our blog! Our goal with this blog is to provide our thoughts on why the Howard Dean Campaign of 2004 didn't really change "campaigning forever." Howard Dean's campaign was billed to be"remarkable at the time for its extensive use of the Internet to reach out to its supporters" (emphasis added). The extensive media hype regarding the long term impact of Dean's use of technology has led us to name this blog "Hype for America," in honor of Dean's website, "Dean for America".

We're interested in your thoughts! Please use the commenting tool (by clicking on the comments link at the bottom of each post) to give us your feedback! You might enjoy the blog more by reading it from the bottom up in the order it was posted.

In our blog, you'll see references to our rival blog, Type for America. Feel free to check them out, too, and let them know where they've gone wrong!
