Trippi’s bet on Net will pay off far into the future

“Trippi was right about plenty of things last year. He bet that savvy use of the Internet, plus unprecedented reliance on and trust in people at the edges of networks, could help turn a “who’s he?” candidate into a genuine contender for the nomination.”
“Dean has flaws as a candidate that hurt him, but that doesn’t mean the Internet model of political organization is a failure. Witness the rapid adoption of Weblogs, MeetUps and online fundraising by the other candidates.”
