New NRSC Website

Just a few hours ago the National Republican Senatorial Committee released its new website.

The site allows users to add blogger buttons, join the NRSC’s social movement (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Blip Tv).

With a doubt the most important addition the new website has is the new texting service the NRSC has adopted.  First publicized by President Obama in his presidential election, this service allows NRSC supporters to receive updates right to their cell phones.  If this sounds like something your interested in  text 2010 to GONRSC (466772).

The National Republican Senatorial Committee has just released its latest ad, “Caesar.”  The article takes aim at Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.  Recently Reid has been facing immense amounts of pressure from the Republicans. 

It seems Reid has been facing criticism since 2006 when he came under fire for his possible involvement in the Jack Abramoff lobbying scandal.
