The Tuesday night ritual of gathering around the electronic campfire to share in the evolving politics of the 2008 presidential race may finally be over, at least until November. Here are some snapshots and observations from tonight.

A Digg-style site lets Obama supporters make suggestions to the campaign; a video of a Young Hillary Clinton; who, exactly, are these online Republicans we hear about?; Click 4 Obama makes a political FreeRice site; Causes posts some big numbers; and the RNC launches a Obama Iraq countdown clock.

A fake superdelegate on YouTube; Hillary can't catch a break online; Grover Norquist shows up in the RNC's "Can We Ask" campaign; graphic designers get out the vote; John McCain shores up his tech policy; a McCain adviser answers Wired readers' questions; Hillary's t-shirt contest enters the voting stage; Ron Paul's been employing tons of family members; and a Member of Congress uses Qik.

The Next Right launches; is Slatecard the "Republican ActBlue"?; Hillary Clinton's bad day; it's the network, stupid; Barack Obama is the jukebox favorite; Al Franken continues to get hounded by bloggers; Newt Gingrich hints at a 2012 or 2016 run; and Hillary and Barack dance in Puerto Rico.

A new song wants to convince John McCain to fire the lobbyists working for his campaign; the DNCC blog dust-up continues; The Next Right is set to launch next week; a catalog of robo-calls from around the country; the ultimate "nightmare ticket"; two funny, meaningless bits of web-detritus; a forum on Online Political Participation at NYU in June; buy a Barack Obama and Raul Castro tea set from the RNC; analyzing Obama and McCain's SEO skillz; an analysis of McCain's new web site; and an Alaska Senatorial candidate pledges to post his calendar online.

A new Republican group swears web domination is all about the right tools; the presidential race is the best example of the impact of blogging on politics, says Technorati; Jose Antonio Vargas gets introspective about online politics; the DNC credentialing process is on the verge of becoming a fiasco; Second Life attacks made real in Russia; Google News and Google Earth offer cool possibilities; a new, smooth pro-Obama tune; McCain says none more black!; Hillary Tweets more, conducts blog outreach; and British PM reaches out to constituents on YouTube.

The Obama camp "leaks" an alleged VP short list; McCainPedia is criticized for not being wiki enough; James Kotecki and David McMillan ponder Obama's blackness; a new Brave New Films video rises to the top of the viral heap; and John McCain's TV ads are getting some notice.

You may be surprised at who some Ronulans are voting for this November; ProgressNowAction asks for your witty anti-McCain captions; hands-down, the best Hillary impression we've seen; only 2% of ad dollars will be spent online in '08; Googlers have a tough time spelling Hillary's name; the Obama campaign steers supporters away from 527s; Frank Lautenberg misses the chance to emulate Obama's online approach; Ralph Nader visits Google; and Al Gore tried to buy Digg in 2006.

MoveOn announces the winner of its Obama ad contest; Andrew Sullivan, the web, and the fight against obedience, submission, and authoritarianism; a videoblogger asks, where is Ralph Nader's party and organization?; LisaNova nails a Hillary/Sunset Blvd. impression; Surrender Hillary is popping up across the land; two candidate Twitter feeds aggregate Twitter-chatter about the candidates; and George Bush submits to his first online-only (but not live) interview.

Jose Antonio Vargas thinks Barack Obama's early popularity online pointed to his electoral success; Color of Change hits Hillary for "race-baiting"; Al Franken is annoyed by a pesky blogger; the New York Times botches superdelegate data, and Congresspedia gets it right; super-conservative Richard Viguerie launches anti-John McCain site; Micah Sifry livestreamed on Qik; Obama launches a huge voter registration drive; the RNC hits Obama with an attack ad, almost securing him as the Democratic nominee in the process; and Obama wins an award for its texting smarts
