Abstract
The campaigns of 2000 and beyond will increasingly find a home in the country's most rapidly maturing medium: the Internet. No longer the playground of academics and computer whizzes, the Internet is an unmistakable part of the American scene. The tremen-dous growth of online political campaigning is a primary indicator of how integral the Internet has become to mainstream American life.
From static web pages that were little more than online brochures to today's multi-media web sites with embedded video and audio clips, campaigning in cyberspace is changing with the medium. It is also changing the political process, and changing it without waiting for the imprimatur of the Federal Election Commission (FEC).
