*ongoing* Romney FB likes crash as Ron Paul's steadily rises

[Bastiat's The Law]

I've seen quite a few of my neocon FB friends from high school liking Rand's page, especially during his drone filibuster. These are the same types of people who lambasted me months ago for bringing up the same subject, which makes me happy and disgusted at the same time. The sheeple are starting to like Rand because Faux news is covering him without the smears his father received for speaking of the same topics. Let's just hope they actually wake up and think for themselves before the election (doubtful). I want Rand to win, but I really want him to win because people are fed up and truly want their liberty, not just because he is the media's chosen candidate.

Sometimes you have to fake it till you make it. As long as they're on the path to liberty that's all that matters.

This is the part where you CEMENT all of the ideas they are supposedly supporting and if they ever go back on those, you may call them out for being inconsistent. Notice how a lot of the talking heads are forced to acknowledge their own contradictions or are weary of doing it on live television because they do support a lot of the things Rand Paul is talking about.

Ruibo has been running FB ads. I have seen them a few times. Once was an image with "Stand With Rubio" but they got so much flack for using Rand's slogan they removed the post ha.

Metoobio works my last nerve. That stuffed shirt doesn't have an original thought in his neocon head.

What a loser! He should just stick to making delicious fish tacos. That's the only thing I like Rubio for.

I noticed Christie got over 10,000 likes today.

Is there someone better for us to compete with on likes? I'd really like to see one of those datacharts with Rand and Hilary. Perhaps she would be more competitive.

rand going to hit a million soon!

918k

No it's organic. Pretty easy to tell. His posts are getting thousands of likes. My sister loves sharing them with the whole family!

you remind me of someone who used to post here...

Whoa, what happened there? I've been on a road trip for a few days, did I miss some kind of news about Christie?

And it's all on that one day. He had 84 new likes the day before, and 21 on the next two days afterwards. Seems odd.

I was interested in seeing a match up with Hillary also but I don't think she even has a Facebook page.

Rand still tearing it up big time. Consistently around 10x's the likes Rubio is getting.
Consistently in the top 20 on facebook on 'most shared posts'.

His 'past 7 days' numbers are staying right at 20,000. Very good growth.

Looking at charts is good to, nice and steady and doesn't look like any sudden growth spikes or anything. Just a steady upward climbing line.

To me this is a more interesting comparison than Rubio at the moment: http://pagedata.appdata.com/pages/facebook/-/6815841748+54172246106

So Rand might break a million before July 4th looks like.

 

[FriedChicken]

Given the past couple weeks ... if he doesn't break a million by 7/04/13 I'll be disappointed.

Just realized Sarah Palin has 3.5 million likes ... for what its worth. I guess it would go to show that facebook likes aren't everything. lol

people pretty regularly buy them now.

However, while she might do that, she does in fact have real grass roots. It is evident from actual activity, not like some.

Completely agree. She is regularly on the list of users with the highest "shares" for their posts.
Come to think of it ... would have to go back and look but I think conservatives in general get a lot more shares than liberals. If thats true color me encouraged!

April 18th:

Rand Paul --852,327 likes · 91,567 talking about this
Marco Rubio --460,056 likes · 22,249 talking about this

May 20th:
Rand Paul --942,322 likes · 211,455 talking about this
Marco Rubio --488,575 likes · 47,825 talking about this

So Rand might break a million before July 4th looks like.

He should make it before then, although that would be a fun day to hit the mark. I'm also curious whether or not the pace picks up as he gets closer to a million.

At the beginning of February I guessed May... looks like it will be close but he won't quite make it.

Rand is on pace to hit 1 million likes in May 2013, a full two years before the first GOP debate.

He's been averaging 3,300 a day since April 25th. If that pace stays the same he should break 1,000,000 within the next 3 weeks.

Sarah Palin has a lot of fans. She also has a lot of people that hate her. If Facebook measured dislikes she'd likely have an equal number.

While it's not actually a page about her, but more of a grassroots run page, this page for Clinton should also be noted:
