I thought this was interesting. Google trends is my new favorite tool. The above link is for google searches for Ron Paul in Iowa based on origination of search. It lists the top ten. You can look at each state. I like it, pretty cool.

I think this could be used for GOTV, door-to-door marketing, etc. Google trends shows the "hot spots" of interest. If the grassroots and the campaign utilize this it could be huge. Get em' while their interested and before they settle on Rick 'Mandate' Perry, right?

Look up your own state and see where you can find people searching for answers!

I would have thought more people would be interested in this post, I had almost never used google trends but now I look at it everyday (not that i like to use a google product...).

Today is the first time in 10 days that Ron is not first (in gop candidates) in search results though,
