The site is chock-full of interesting factoids and interactivity. For example, there is a fun-filled feature titled Abraham: The Game. A special interest is named, followed by a list of different dollar amounts (all in denominations of $100,000 or more.) The challenge is to click on the figure actually given ol’ Spence. Guess incorrectly and you are instructed to go back and try again. Hit the right amount and up pops a quick tutorial describing just how special Spence’s relations are with such civic-minded groups as the insurance and pharmaceutical industries.
Another feature, Spencer for Hire, allows visitors to match up the senator’s votes with actual campaign contributions. And then there’s the Abraham Pop Quiz, which purports to teach viewers that Spence’s "election-year rhetoric doesn’t change a career of voting against Michigan schools."
Sure, it doesn’t match some of the free porn sites News Hits likes to frequent, but it has its moments.
