Default SPECIAL: Democrats answer "Citizens United"

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/0..._n_628715.html

The Democratic National Committee will debut on Tuesday a new web-based
feature that will empower several million Democratic activists to serve
as "trackers" of Republican candidates throughout the country.

In a move that could add a broad new element of accountability to
elections -- or simply make the political process even more
gaffe-centric -- the DNC is encouraging its followers to upload video,
mail pieces or audio recordings of GOP officials to a DNC-run site.

If carried out as planned, the new online tool could drastically alter
the landscape of the 2010 elections, with campaign functions contracted
out to hundreds of free volunteers.
