They they should be permitted to only use free ways to promote themselves, such as Twitter.

Interaction with your congresspeople should be a very important part of living in a democracy. Unfortunately most people (me) view communicating with government folk as futile... i can see my e-mail being filtered and shoved into some aides flooded inbox, only to be glanced at and discarded days later. Of course I don't actually KNOW that because I haven't had a reason to write my congressman.. until now! If I could follow politicians on Twitter, it would give me a better impression of what kind of person they were, how they're keeping true to their campaign promises, how they react to current events, etc... All things that would influence my voting for them in the future. And just as you said, this kind of personal insight would be infinitely more influential than any crappy TV Ad...Bobs last blog post..<a href="http://twitter.com/bob_abbey/statuses/861875271" rel="nofollow">bob_abbey: @Smeets88 if im the only one who can see your tweets, might as well just text me right?</a> This is an excellent idea, Michelle.
