Let’s Talk Numbers
It seems every other day that you see another poll about who will be the GOP nominee for 2012. Most show Mitt Romney or Newt Gingrich as the front runner and Sarah Palin close in 3rd place. I don’t know about you but I always wondered who these people are that the pollsters talk to. I have never been asked for my two cents which is a good thing because if someone called me they’d probably get twenty bucks worth.
At any rate I decided to gauge the front runner in another way… Facebook!
Here are the top three and how many people follow them.
Mitt Romney 445,389
Newt Gingrich 62,559
Sarah Palin 1,900,454
Now who is the front runner? Even if one generously cut Palin’s number in half for haters and the media, while giving Romney and Gingrich 100% of their followers assuming they are all “friendly”, Palin still comes out on top!
