The battle of the lists

Lists, used to be a place where jousts took place. Now the battle of the lists is who has the largest collection of names to use in the upcoming election between Brocanier and Partridge. On one side you have John Wright, who was handed to Broc by Peter Delanty (a well placed local liberal), the alleged Northumberland 'rainmaker' and on the other you have Martin Partridge who has been collecting lists for years so that he can fundraise for Liberals of all stripes.
The downside is that anybody who has been connected with the Liberals at any time in recent history will now be fair game for phone calls and other messages from both sides. So how will the general population be hit up by these candidates? Using google we find that Brocanier has a website here even has his own domain name 'gilbrocanier.ca' but no facebook page. Partridge has neither but has powerful allies who could create one in seconds - wait for it.
The BurdReport is told that online campaigning will be a way of reaching the electorate. It will be interesting to see just how "Obamamania" goes hyperlocal.

As regards Mr. Brocanier's web site campaign outline, I'm left wondering as to whether the sponge in the sponginess of his spongy message is natural sponge or synthetic sponge.

Like his message, I think it's synthetic. Either way, if the average voter had a ton of it dumped on him or her from 15-stories up, it's doubtful they'd feel a thing.
