Loyal Reader Mike gets the hat tip for pointing us towards Dana Milbank’s absolutely hysterical WaPo story on the race for RNC chair, during which incumbent chair Mike Duncan discussed how to connect to the young folk of today:

“We have to do it in the Facebook, with the Twittering, the different technology that young people are using today,” Duncan ventured.

I sense a new internet meme to replace “I am aware of all Internet traditions” or, barring that, a new euphamism for Republican sex scandals (“Larry Craig got caught trying to do it in the facebook with the twittering”).

As if that weren’t enough, apparently Ken Blackwell has turned into an eighth-grade girl:

“Let me just say that I have 4,000 friends on Facebook,” contributed Blackwell, putting his hand on Dawson’s and Anuzis’s knees. “That’s probably more than these two guys put together, but who’s counting, you know?”

You cannot make this stuff up.

In closing, I’d just like to point out that here at Moue, we’re already doing it in the Facebook with the Twittering, so to speak.
