If Bennett had the brains to do the same thing Eager is doing, perhaps you would not say the same thing. And hey, if a candidate chooses to follow me, then hey I have a great thing going for me.

All of the other candidates have been in for more than 7. So, I know that all of the candidates have been pushing their respective FB fan pages since I get requests to join almost daily and still after 4 weeks, Mike has more than even the incumbent.

So, if you want to look at the facts, those are them.

Mike Lee is and will continue to show that he is the superior candidate. He is not platitudes or borrowed principles. He is the real deal

They call it “assuming facts not in evidence.” You don’t know why there is a big difference in numbers, but you are pretty good at assuming the reason is negative. Now, can you come up with some positive or is negative all you can muster?

These are not someone following you back, these are people going out of their way to add you to key lists of people they follow. They do not include the many private twitter lists.

Number of Twitter (public) lists:

Cherilyn Eagar 63
Bridgewater 24
Mike Lee 17
Bennett 13
Granato 10
William 0

Tim Bridgewater has 928 facebook friends
Mike Lee has 854 facebook friends

Bennett has 2889 friends

Cherilyn has been working on facebook friends and group members, and not “fans” as much.

Lets see how many turn in to delegates.

So it seems that the only reason she has a higher number there is that she went out and followed a bunch of people in hopes that they would follow her back, and only roughly half have chosen to do so.
