Mark,

The Internet is a major unknown in political circles. Not only do the 
politicians not want to post/publish information in public, if it weren't for 
special interest groups, most legislation would be done in such a way that you 
would never hear about it.

There is something you can do. GET INVOLVED. Contact you local "party" offices 
and find out who is planning on running. Talk to the candidates about the 
Internet and open communications. Get them involved in an open dialog with the 
people that they are supposed to represent.
