wow, just barely edging out Bachmann, still good though.

Yeah, we had a higher margin yesterday. I don't track it, I just happened to see it today and yesterday.

I wish there was a way to see if these are negative or positive comments! That's what twitter should add

I see a lot of Ron's and they are mostly positive. Those who don't support him are typically (but not always) talking about something else.

don't know if this can be done or not or if it's even a good idea as I'm not a programmer and don't know if this will violate the twitter TOS, but can a site be built to automatically tweet pro-Ron Paul stuff at specified intervals?

I understand there is a way to time tweets (your own). Someone was doing it during the debate twitter bomb (I didn't, don't know how, but got put into 'Twitmo' for suspicion of spam a few times, I was tweeting so much). I wish I did know, I'd set an automatic tweet about Ron's money bomb. But I remember often enough to do it manually, I guess.

if that's something someone could program without it breaking the twitter TOS, I think it could be beneficial to get his name out. social media is where it's at so we need to use it to our full potential. I have a programming buddy that I'll talk to about this.

We need sweeping success on the net for average success offline. This isn't that great.

Exactly. We need to crush the competition online to have a shot!

Hey, at least we won. That is moving in the right direction. Many who value privacy -- as most RP supporters do, don't like twitter or facebook invasion of privacy policies. I only created a twitter account for Ron, and use it for nothing else.

I've used a tool on Twitter before that will automatically send a response to something posted on Twitter. So for example, you could set it that so anytime someone says Michelle Bachmann, a tweet goes out about Ron Paul. However, this isn't a great idea unless there was very coordinated efforts to avoid cross-posting.
