    Vision

    Chris:  RE: Jay Carney's new glasses. They're awesome.

    Me:  Unlike Seth.

    Seth:  Whatever. I guess I'll suffer with my 10/10 vision.

    Me:  You mean short-sightedness? Because that's all I seem to hear from your party. Or maybe you're just blind because none of your party leaders have any real VISION.

    Decision 2012: By The Facebook Likes

    chris-golden:

    I hope to use this blog to explore the nexus between new media and the 2012 Presidential Campaign- at all different levels. To start, here’s a very superficial look at how the candidates are using Facebook. The following are the number of “likes” as of July 09, 2011 for each of the declared Republican presidential candidates:

    • Mitt Romney 1,031,700
    • Michelle Bachmann 414,107
    • Herman Cain 147,795
    • Newt Gingrich 142,056
    • Gary Johnson 126,426
    • Tim Pawlenty 103,049
    • Ron Paul 29,767
    • Rick Santorum 23,374
    • Jon Huntsman 9,111
    • Fred Karger 2,048
    • Thaddeus McCotter 1,009
    • Andy Martin 568 (Facebook Friends)

    One of the above will compete against President Obama in the 2012 election. As of July 09, the President has 21 million, 968 thousand 390 (21,968,390) likes.
