Joe Trippi Mother Jones Interview

Excerpt:
"MJ: On the flip side, which technology is the most overhyped right now?

JT: I would say text messaging on cell phones is not what it has been in South Korea or in other nations.

MJ: Which candidate is doing the most important things?

JT: I just signed on with Edwards, but one of the reasons I did is that both Obama and Edwards have been two of the more leading-edge campaigns of this cycle. Clinton hasn't been doing badly, though. Look, you know, this is the year in which Hillary Clinton literally announced her campaign virtually, and no one would have predicted four years ago that every single campaign would be trying to push the envelope and the front-runner would be literally announcing her campaign on the Net. One of the problems is that the front-runner always has to be more careful. I don't think the Clinton campaign is not pushing the envelope because they don't know what to do. It's not pushing the envelope because she's the front-runner."
