The best and worst of the Democrat Presidential Candidates' websites

What is the most important part of each of the three leading democrats campaigns? Their websites, duh. The recent update that Hillary, John, and Barack's campaigns are about tied in Iowa means this is an important time for each even though the actual election is more than one year from now.

Barack Obama's website is nice and organized. His logo is the classiest of the three. He started the concept of having social networking built into his site, and he's got a lot of support on facebook and myspace. He has raised the most money. Good balance.

Hillary Clinton's website is professional but cheesy. Her logo resembles a confederate flag (does anyone notice that?). Seems like it is designed to be read quickly and easily, with a lot of fluff, like big parts of the site titled "Growing up in Illinois". Nevertheless, easy to read and get excited about, if you're into her deal.

John Edward's website is gimmicky and confusing. His logo is fine, a little shooting star thing. Feels like an advertisement, lots of buttons such as "grassroots" in grassy sort of clip-art type. The content is fine, and is organized in bars on the top of the page. Not the best of the three.

So my overall conclusion is Barack's is the best and Edwards' is the worst, with Hillary right in the middle. Ooh! I like Barack and his odds at this point. Read about the "Bradley effect", where less voters cast actual votes for a black candidate, than those who, pre-election, say they intend to.
