Maybe it’s just me…

But the fact that today Obama does a Reddit AMA, and Mitt Romney buys a sponsored twitter trend says more about this campaign than any pundit ever could.
Lets go over the thought processes:
- Obama: “I’ll take questions from people on Reddit, and people will get a kick out of it, and it will be a whole internet thing. Plus it’s reddit, they love me anyway. Like.. Its reddit. “
- Romney: “Can I buy popularity on the internet? Oh, I can? I’ll take eight.”
Or something like that. There’s poignancy in this, somewhere.
