MarkUdall.com Goes To War

•  
• by: Colorado Pols

If you’ve checked out Senate candidate Mark Udall’s website in the last week, you’ll see it’s been updated to slam opponent Bob Schaffer on the economy right from the splash page:

Across America — it’s an economic crisis.

In Colorado — middle-class families are squeezed to the breaking point.

And the failed economic policies of George Bush and Bob Schaffer are a big reason for the mess.

Schaffer voted for billions in special tax breaks for corporations that ship American jobs overseas.

Schaffer wants billions more in tax giveaways for big oil companies.

And Bob Schaffer voted to protect the pensions of corporate CEOs-even when those executives falsify their companies’ financial documents.

Like a good campaign commercial, except cheaper. More effective for Udall than for Schaffer to turn his website into an effective attack vehicle too, given that both major web traffic ranking services, Alexa and Quantcast, show Udall’s site getting many times the traffic of Schaffer’s.

Alexa rankings (lower=better):

markudall.com: 306,121

Quantcast rankings (higher=better):
