ASK Sarah Palin - VIA Interactive Billboard

This is an absolute first and frankly it's f---ing brilliant. The California Democratic Party has a giant electronic billboard up somewhere near a Los Angeles-area rally that Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin is doing today that is displaying live text-message questions people are sending in. On top of that, the whole thing is streaming live back onto the web using UStream.tv. Check it out:

"To submit a question for our electronic billboard, text the keyword ASK then the question to the number 69866.

For example, send to 69866: ASK You said you'd run a respectful campaign on the issues, what happened?

Keep your questions under 160 characters including spaces and remember to keep them family friendly since we're showing them in public."

Questions are streaming in: "How is your plan to lower taxes any different from what Bush has advocated for the last 8 years?"..."What would be your first plan of action in the event that John McCain is unable to continue his duties as President?"

This is cool, every city where a candidate visits needs one. Don't cha think?
