Question by Tokolosh: OMG! The GOP is ‘tweeting!’. Should the Dems be worried about this?

Twitter allows users to text short messages of 140 characters or fewer from their phones, BlackBerrys or computers to their profile pages and their followers’ phones and computers. And though some experts question the effectiveness of Twitter as a political communication tool and more than a few lawmakers have already experienced the downside of the unfiltered communication it offers, Republican communications staffers have actively encouraged their lawmakers to tweet away. And so they have.
“While in St. Joseph, I made a second stop at the Stetson outlet store to get a second pair of Levi’s,” Rep. Roy Blunt (R-Mo.) tweeted this month.
“Stoked that the triplets stood up on a surfboard and road [sic] the wave for the first time today,” Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) recently informed his public.

And Tom DeLay’s on Dancing With the Stars. It’s like a comical train wreck parody. I love it.

You should be worrying about the elections in 2010 Lib.
You’re going to find out what the word “payback” means.
You people made a mistake. You alienated the people that will decide the next couple of elections.
The Independents.
I think it’s very disrespectful that they “tweet” during Obama’s Congressional addresses. What is this, third grade?
We have nothing to fear, but fear itself. That and a return to the
#$%^ed up politics and policies of the current GOP. Tweet on oh ship of state!
…And why should I be “worried” or even care about what they do on an internet website?
