In years past there has been a lot of debate about the Democrat domination online – and whether or not Republicans would be able to catch up.

Now that Obama is in the White House and Republicans find it much easier to convince 85 year-old women to Twitter, is it fair to say the playing field has leveled?

We did a little poking around to find out which political committee was doing better online and whether or not the gap was narrowing. [as of August 24 at noon]

Except for blogging and the fact the the RNC site is a hot mess, it seems as if they might have a slight edge.  Can anyone explain as to why the RNC hasn’t blogged since Nixon was in the Oval Office?

UPDATE: Don’t count out the House GOP, they just launched a New Media caucus.
