WARNING: I am about to GO SCOBLE.
So I get my “I’ve got a shiny new website” email from my personal all-time favorite candidate for president, Ohio Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich, and I check out the site.
It’s great.
Much slicker than what he had up during the 2004 race. There’s video, a little flashy looking stuff, a forum (eh), and even a clearly-not-a-blog “Report From Washington” on the front page. Great, so I’ll just look for a little orange button…
Hmm. Brand new website – no little orange buttons…
No problem, I’ll just hit my little “Subscribe With Bloglines” button on my browser then.
Gee, no feeds.
Well, let’s see – there’s a link off to the left here to all the video, that one surely must have a feed of some sort…
Nope.
WHERE ARE THE FEEDS, DENNIS????
Let’s see how quick my email to them gets answered. I’ll update here when it happens.

UPDATE: Okay, in the time it took me to write that post, a volunteer from the Re-Elect Congressman Kucinich Committee replied to my email to let me know she had forwarded my rant to the website staff, and thanked me for the suggestion. The system is intelligent.

2nd UPDATE: Alright, now she writes me again to let me know they’re working on it. No timetable offered, but more of the “thanks for your continuing input” kind of pleasantness. I like that.
