RAAR! I actually like the logo. And I think it's actually a really good idea to "brand" it. Out here, when we get freeways upgraded (or whatever road project) there's always a big sign saying "Paid For By Measure A Funds" or whatever. This connects voters with the bonds they vote for, and the actual work that gets done. I think this could work well on a national scale too. My article was kind of tongue-in-cheek, but what do folks think about the basic idea? Too crass or cheesy? Too political? Or a good idea? -CW OsborneInk -

The emphasis seems to be on the website, which is in keeping with the move to open-source governance. Obama's pushing a very web-centric "campaign" here...
