Sunday at Hillary Speaks For Me

Hillary Speaks For Me is a website where you can post videos and leave messages.  It generates a "giant playlist" that streams your videos.   (Note -- Obama supporters have a great site, too:YouBama - The Citizen Generated Campaign.)

On Sunday at Hillary Speaks For Me we received a number of new videos and a wave of new message postings from people across the country - especially from Texas and Ohio where Tuesday's primaries are generating very high interest.

Daily Digest: Hillary Speaks For Me!

Personal Democracy Forum

Want some voter-generated content? We’ll give you some voter-generated content! Hillary Clinton supporters are stepping up online, posting video testaments to HRC on Hillary Speaks For Me. It’s a great site that feels authentic — for once! — and features videos from young people of all stripes. The demographic — young, multi-racial, hip — looks mighty, well, Barackian, which would be no accident if this was a campaign-generated site. But this is apparently the real thing. If the Clinton campaign is paying attention, they should send a link to every supporter and push this hard.

Youthful Hillary Clinton Supporters Strike Back at Obamamaniacs 

WIRED

A group of young Hillary Clinton supporters in New York City have had it. They’re not going to take it anymore.

Fed up of being out-voiced by the seemingly innumerable supporters of senator Barack Obama morning noon and night — on YouTube, MySpace, generally on the web, television, the streets and anywhere else you can think of, this coterie of New York City’s creative class decided that it was time to create the Hillary Clinton Video Organism.

Why The Web Is Not Enough

NEW YORK Isaac Freeman, better known in the hip-hop world as Fatman Scoop, and his wife, Shanda, are leaning up against the headboard of their king-size bed, computers on their laps, answering viewer questions about relationships. But this is not your average chat show. Manandwife.tv is raw, riddled with profanity, and the content is undeniably adult. And if the buzz about this weekly online series is any indication, it may just become MTV Networks' next reality hit.
