It looks obvious

I suggested in the past to take the Internet support for Ron Paul with a lot of caution, and I’m still looking for a reasonable metric that will suggest a voting prediction based on sampling Internet support. However, one cannot dismiss the increasing support and its viral effect for political campaign - Such as  Ron Paul campaign. I don’t know how to measure the effect of a grassroots youtube clip that is being viewed 150,000 over one day after it was posted. The cost for the campaign, mostly when compared to a few second TV advertisement, is tempting. But is it reaching those the campaign wanted to reach?

One thing is sure, we can point to an increasing support over the interment. What will be its effect on the actual voting pattern - we will have to wait and see.
