a slightly different competition

I checked out the websites of (what seems to become) the main contenders in the US presidential elections. While George W Bush goes for the all-inclusive, slightly cluttered kind of site design, Senator Kerry mainly opted for an innocent white.

All in all - nothing special on both sides and no big surprises or even daring animations. A bit like real life really. Maybe a slight advantage for Kelly and the less confusing design. But what it shows is: even current and future presidents have to respect browser incompatibilities and make their site as accessible as possible. In front of computers we're all equal! Yieeeppieeh.
