blogger interrupted

This, if I may say so myself, is why I’m such a genius.

As it appears the end of the Democratic primary is upon us, I’ve had some corporate communication types ask me, “What does this mean? For me?” The question inherently recognizes that something is going on in the American body politic, and that it must mean something for business. And that it probably has something to do with blogs.

Give me more, you say!  

It’s been widely commented that Bill Clinton simply was not ready for the new media cycle, driven in large part by the blogosphere. He has misinterpreted his own misunderstanding for a bias toward his wife. Wrong. The one way conversation with the media which Bill Clinton (read: your company) was used to is gone. Anyone re-entering politics after last engaging in national politics in 1996 will find a universe of voices who talk back, who weren’t even imaginable in 1996, and who don’t respect the old rules.

It’s either genius, or what I do when my real blog is down for 3 days.  You decide.
