Tip O'Neill was famously quoted as saying "All politics is local". He passed away (in '94) before the Web could really make the adage true. Today, a guy like the Big Swede in NY can have a say in a state election that he cannot even vote in, like Massachusetts. When a Mass pol can have a direct influence in what gets picked out of my pocket in NY by the federal government, and I can donate to the candidate whose fingers I think will be less sticky, well, that sure is local!
Scott Brown has a moneybomb going on today.
