Does anyone know what just happened that made the Ron Paul Facebook share counter (down by the state picture) go crazy?

I have been following it a couple of months now and it generally gets 1000 new FB shares ever other or every third day. Every now and then, like after debates on TV it jumps 2-4000 in one day.

Since yesterday the counter has gone from 349 000 to now 374 000, more than 20 000 shares in 24 hours o.O?

Is the campaign getting yberviral somehow or did 19 000 Cain members actually convert straight over due to the forum thingy?

Or am I missing something else?

The BIG DOG ad is circulating through the sports crowds is a likely explanation.

I am guessing that it is people sharing the site, promoting the money bomb.

Hope it is the "BIG DOG"-ad theory.
Sounds plausible and if it is that would probably be voters taken from the current MSM picked winner --> Newt.

In any case...Sweet indeed.

Who said it was ?
It is a Facebook share of the www.ronpaul2012.com homepage. No Facebook page...a homepage link.

go to www.ronpaul2012.com and scroll down to the bottom on the first page. Underneath the state map there is 6x counters for different share features. Facebook link furthest to the left has gone up almost 10% now in the last 24 hours =). Very Nice!
