His Name is Adolfo. Will You Be His Friend?

Somebody please join the Facebook group "Friends of Adolfo Carrion" -- because right now the Bronx Borough President and comptroller candidate is the only member of his group.

Now, I'm sure there will be plenty of people 'friending' Adolfo soon enough, but his lonely-seeming profile -- he's been his own best friend for more than a week now -- does provide a valuable lesson in Campaigning 101: If you're going to launch a social networking page for your favorite candidate, make sure you find him some friends right away. Otherwise, he might look kind of sad.

Are there any other pages like this out there?
