    I'm teaching a New Media and American Politics grad seminar
    this quarter and had a couple of students assigned to hit hard
    the Web political sites and report what they saw (um, heard, etc.).

    Anyway, they reported having a very difficult time connecting.
    They tried all the usual suspects and found things slow are
    simply not accessible.  Could have been local, I suppose.

    Next day was easy.  I was able to access lots of exit poll
    breakdowns of the electorate for my public opinion reporting class.
