2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumSo when a Super PAC pays people to blog on behalf of a campaign:
Does the paid blogging and social media comments stop at the end of the primary?
Or does the paid blogging and social media posts continue until the end of general election?
How does one get a paid social-media-poster-for-a-political-campaign job? Monster.com? LinkedIn?
How much does this type of job pay? Are you paid by the post or by the hour?
How is the performance measured? Like, "You really burned KeepItReal with that post, you get a bonus!!" ?
And if you had an extra $1 Million dollars in your Super Political Action Committee, couldn't you have done something more productive, like registering Democratic voters or hiring lawyers to make sure Democrats could actually cast counted votes instead of provisional ballots? Or even the old-fashioned, let's-run-a-TV-ad touting the vision, values and record of our candidate?

Are some of the qualification requirements snark and the ability to stick to talking points no matter how solid the facts?
