And you thought the Ashton v CNN twattle was hot... Looks like @usdemocrats is run by a raging lunatic. First- @MHJohnston kinda-sorta retweeted my link about Bad Twitter User!, so he's targeted by the certified krazy that is @usdemocrats. Check out the middle-of-the-night rant from loony tunes, who apparently Simply Cannot Believe that a true Democrat would Even Dare to suggest their editorial use of Twitter was *gasp* BAD.
HILARITY ENSUES!

Dear @usdemocrats,
I'm a Democrat, you numbnuts. Jesus, all you have to do is read my Twitter feed to see where I fall on the spectrum, but let me save you the trouble; I AM YOUR BASE, ASSHOLE. Do all us Democrats a favor and self-eject from the Twitterverse. You are so lame.
Love,

Bad Twitter User!
Twitter is awesome. But now that it's gone mainstream, some accounts are proving that they just don't "get" how Twitter works. Take @usdemocrats, for example. I subscribed because I'm interested in political news. I also happen to be a Democrat. But they treat Twitter like it's a press release distribution channel.
FLAG DOWN ON THE PLAY, @usdemocrats. Issuing 60 or 70 tweets at once is spam. Or twam. Or whatever. So when it's pointed out to you, don't be a douche, k? Great.
This is @usdemocrats response:
FOR THE RECORD, @usdemocrats issued 66 tweets en masse around 0700ET today. (list below, so you can judge for yourself the usefulness of their editorial judgment when it comes to “informing of important public messages.” Jeesh.
ALSO: Any Twitter account that has issued 14k tweets is a little suspect, imho.
