Text a Question to Palin, Watch it Streaming Online
Whether you're impressed by Sarah Palin's folksiness or disturbed by her evasiveness, there's a good chance you might want to ask her a question. Now is your chance. The California Democratic Party has rented a digital billboard across from an upcoming rally for the Veep candidate in Los Angeles. Anyone can send a text message to 69866 containing a question (160 characters or less) and the keyword "ASK." The question will be shown not only on the billboard, but also on the Internet, where it is streaming live in the above video.
Obviously, many of the questions seem to be somewhat less than pleased with the Governor's previous statements, but despite that we haven't seen anything that's overtly offensive, which makes us think there's someone somewhere approving these before they get published. That's a good thing. [From: textually.org]

Hi Tim,
Thanks for writing about the CA Democrats texting campaign around the Sarah Palin visit. I work for Mobile Commons, which handled the texting technology behind the event.
To answer your question - yes, the questions for Palin were moderated. This capability is built in to the technology. I saw almost every message that came through and an overwhelming percentage were legitimate, policy questions.
