DEMOCRAT EDWARDS INTO MYSPACE, MTV CAMPAIGNING
[SOURCE: Reuters, AUTHOR: Ellen Wulfhorst]
John Edwards stepped into the Internet world of MySpace and MTV on Thursday as the first of the U.S. presidential contenders to campaign live and online on the Web sites hugely popular with American youth. The former U.S. senator, who is running third among Democrats in most presidential public opinion polls, answered questions on domestic and international issues while viewers submitted queries online and registered their reactions in a live poll. The high-tech, youth-oriented forum was staged at the University of New Hampshire a day after Edwards and seven other Democratic candidates debated at Dartmouth College, also in New Hampshire, traditionally the first U.S. state to cast votes to choose the Democratic and Republican presidential nominees.
