Was WorldWideWebb taken?

Really? Are you sure that he “didn’t do his domain name homework?” The Jim Webb that runs the website has had the same twitter name @jimwebb since at least 2010. It looks like the domain was taken long ago, not snatched up just prior to the announcement, and the campaign settled on something equally uninspired. The fact that he did not want to pay a bunch of money to acquire that domain may say something about his financial resources, but I don’t think that you can jump to the conclusion, without more, that he did not do his homework.
And, in case anyone is wondering, I could not care less about Jim Webb entering the race or his campaign.

Jeb 2016! is what bushie had to settle for since jebbushforpresident.com was taken over a year ago by a same-sex couple in Oregon. But since he checked the Hispanic box recently, shouldn’t it be Yeb?

I like it-- I really do!
But the (D) branding of this needs to be:
Bush!
He cannot be allowed to run away
from the disaster that is his surname.

Exactly my sentiments.
As for Webb…already proving what a fucking novice he is at this whole running for President thing in the digital age. I would like to see his name represented like this at all times when it comes to print: Webb (R-Virginia).
As a former of supporter of George Allen…need anyone say more? If all he accomplishes is to get the old white man vote that’s left in the Democratic party…good luck with that. The Republican party has already cornered the market on most of those to be gotten. Hope when he finds out he can’t make it in the race though, he throws those old white man votes Hillary’s way. She’ll need them.
Fuck this guy. Didn’t he just recently refuse to call the SC racist church massacre what it was? Talk about failing before you even start…

Actually, it would be Heb! if based on Spanish pronunciation.
To be Yeb! it would be spelled “Lleb!”
The double-l is one letter in Spanish, pronounced “eyeh,” and is the only “Y” sound in Spanish.
Hence “llama” is pronounced “yah-ma” because “lama” refers to Tibetan monks.
Here endeth the language lesson for the day.

We didn’t get this far in my Spanish immersion class at Berlitz.

Not the master of his domain.

Jim Webb is the lying coward John McCain in drag. Both losers went to Viet Nam to destroy the innocent people there. Neither one has / had the courage to decry Amerikan fascism and terrorism, then or now. These 2 nightmares deserve each other. We The People deserve and want neither of them on the planet.

Not what happened, but emulate your great aunt’s method of Fox News absorption. It’s super informed.

What the heck is wrong with Democrats and technology?
- Can’t put together a decent healthcare website neither nationally nor locally with a 4 years time frame and with a budget of hundred of millions of dollars
- Can’t figure out how to have 2 emails on a phone, they need two phones and an extra mail server
- Can’t figure out how to do a domain search and discover that their “dream” domain has long been taken
I mean…they even want to be elected President and have the keys to nuclear weapons? That’s a dangerous proposition!!!
At some point the HRC campaign has to start reminding people esp. the low info voters who talk of too many dynasties, that she would be the first woman president and Jeb/Jed/Heb would be the third bush.

Hey you need to listen to Webb’s views, he’s one yours.
www.Webbsite.com is not available? Perhaps he should just drop out already.
The only problem Webb brings is that he could get some votes in Virginia that would otherwise go to Clinton in some marginal areas.
The guy is scum. Not only for his recent comments about the Confederate flag but in his comments about President Obama. Who campaigned hard with him when Webb first ran for Senate.
