A Site For Political Junkies
A friend of mine is a political professional. She has worked in seven states and in at least that many Democratic political campaigns. She’s a sort of political gypsy; a political soldier of fortune who goes where organizing and action are called for.
She has suggested a source for solid political reporting that, she assures me, is prized by political pros. Best of all it's free.
It was a surprise to me that it was buried in a major network news site: ABCNews.com.
It is on the site’s political page and is simply called "The Note." It is a remarkably detailed summary of political news stories, as well as a kind of ‘day book’ that tells what candidates are doing each day, along with other politically significant events. We don’t usually think of network news as more than sound bites and video clips, but there is a lot of good stuff there. Especially if you are currently working or volunteering for a favorite candidate you might want to take a look at it.
Again, the place to go is "The Note" on ABC’s political page.
