SNAP – The Next Big Thing?

Roll Call, one of Capitol Hill’s most read daily political newspapers, has written a great story about SNAP! While there are a few factual errors (SNAP supports progressive candidates, not Democratic candidates) it is a great article on who we are and what we’re about, and some of our first major press coverage! My favorite part of the article is this:

[Geraldine] Ferraro — who said that her role on the advisory board is limited because “these kids are very smart, they don’t need anyone to tell them what to do” — believes the group will get more respect as time goes on.

“Every campaign cycle brings something new,” she said. “Last time it was bloggers, and now they’re becoming a real force. Now it’s these kids at the grass-roots level. This could probably catch on very, very nicely.”
