Voto Latino and Sí TV team up to produce a citizen journalism contest called Crash the Parties; Wonkette is sold, memories are triggered; Steve Johnson compares ants to politics; more on Mayhill Fowler, the citizen journalist behind Bittergate; MediaCurves charts real-time reactions to Obama's Bittergate response; the Beatles are to 2006 as Foghat is to 2008; Hillary has another scripted conversation; an interview with Elizabeth Edwards; and Mike Huckabee launches HuckPac.

Because it's Friday, we bring you Bras for Hillary; Compete data shows a blowout for Barack Obama, but RealClearPolitics averages show a different story; are suffering from election fatigue?; GroundReport posts a transcript of last month's panel on the web and politics at NYU; Ron Paul supporters produce a pro-McCain site that could use a little subtlety; and Mike Huckabee will soon be launching a site about... taxes? We don't know.

A while back I blogged about the social network strategy of the Huckabee campaign and how it was accomplishing a lot with very little (money). The campaign was using the power of the social tie/link -- friends talking to friends about voting. Good strategy, limited population. Huckabee focused on well-defined clusters, like Christian evangelicals, that tend to be very insular and limited in size. With insular cliques, your strategy may work, but it only goes so far -- influence does not cross the chasm to other groups.

What a night! Clinton is victorious in Ohio, Texas, and Rhode Island; our charts show an Obama rise despite the real-world polls; John McCain is now the nominee, and Mike Huckabee is out; McCain's splash page mimics a recent Oscar winner; Obama's site served undecideds better than Clinton's; a petition asking Hillary to step aside might have to be scrapped; Twitter saved the night, again; Eric Boehlert is impressed with a netroots letter-sending campaign; Jay-Z robocalls for Obama; and a major flap about Obama's skin tone is just ugly.

Mike Huckabee continues to hang in there, and YouTube nation is behind him. A video from a family of Huck supporters is possibly the most wholesome thing we’ve ever seen on YouTube. Also, new videos for Barack Obama continue to break musical boundaries (sort of), a robot voices its anger at Ralph Nader, and the metal/rap/punk crowd still adores Ron Paul. Boo-yah!

A new Hillary Clinton Facebook app may be too late; a MySpace poll shows increased support for Obama; a mysterious Edwards URL redirects to Barack Obama's site; what are those superdelegates doing all day?; barely a nod to the web during last night's Democratic debate; Hillary's campaign finally embraces a piece of voter-generated content.

MoveOn members funnel more than $500,000 to the Obama campaign, end send out hundreds of thousands of GOTV notes; a new crop of nonprofits are creating political messaging, blurring the line between advocacy and electoral politics; a chart shows the most popular candidates on Twitter; a sneaky move to redirect folks looking for Mitt Romney (who are they?) to Mike Huckabee's site; the cult of the Obama or a genuine movement?; unexciting headlines about moderately interesting things; and the Obama campaign wants to control the fight against superdelegates.

Rounding up last night's results, explanations, and prognostications; what's CNN? Online politicos tracked the action with Twitter, Google Maps, Flickr, and YouTube instead; Hillary is favored by Microsoft employees, Barack by Google: Hillsoft vs. Goobama?; Voices without Votes gives us international impressions of the race; what do we see when we take a closer look at John McCain?; and online advertising is stuck in the dark ages.

It's the big day! We'll be liveblogging here at techPres starting at around 7:30; "if web traffic equalled votes.." If only!; Barack Obama is officially the hockey-stick candidate; MTV's Street Team '08 fans out across the country; a majority of Facebook users tell pollsters that Hillary Clinton would be a bad choice for president; Tim Wu on Net neutrality and Obama; two polls from LinkedIn and MySpace give show a preference for Obama; Noam Scheiber interviews Joe Trippi; Obama is encouraging supporters to email and call their friends, even if they're too busy watching the "Yes We Can" video; a look at the candidates use of technology in the final push before Super Tuesday; and why Fred Thompson's blog was good, even if his campaign, er, wasn't.

Live blogging "Closing Arguments," the MySpace/MTV Super Dialogue featuring Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Ron Paul, and Mike Huckabee.
