Third ranking House Democrat James Clyburn confused sexting with texting the other day, so now there is a #Clyburnsexts hashtag.
“Use the tools that we have,” 74-year-old Clyburn told a woman who called in to his C-SPAN interview. “We’ve got great tools to communicate about everything else. We can, uh, text. Uh, what do we call it? Sexting.” (RELATED: James Clyburn recommends sexting to C-SPAN Caller)
“Let’s do some voting, uh, uh, organizing over the internet,” he continued. “We’ve got the tools. Let’s use them for a new massive movement that will make sure that we can have in November 2014 the kind of turnout at the polls that we had, uh, in 2012 in November.”
