More On Tracking

As Maine Democrats notes, Sen. Collins hasn't exactly been a privacy rights absolutist.

So it is a bit rich of her camp to take such umbrage at the videotaping of her public appearances.

And one more point: The only political campaign I ever worked on--way back in 1994--used tracking. And I'm pretty sure our guy was followed around as well.

So the notion that this is a new practice--and, implicitly, that it represents some sort of "escalation"--is just plain wrong.
