I read a post in a MNDaily Blog today about politicians and Twitter and it kind of sparked a question in my mind. Should politicians really twitter? Granted it is their first amendment right, but is it ethical, particularly during speeches. Furthermore, I think we expect our politicians to be some of the most articulate and informed individuals and 140 Characters isn't exactly a policy statement.
What do you people think? Leave me a comment, if they should twitter.
I would say no. On the other hand, more openness with constituents is always a plus.
