On Alexa.com you get a whole different picture than what they are showing here. How do they come up with this garbage? BTW I tried to post a comment, and it has to be approved....

They were pretty creative. Either the whole thing is hogwash or they found that more people actually went to the Huckster's official site one day than went to Ron Paul's official site. That might have been the case since there are so many sites dedicated to Ron Paul which is not so with the Huckster. I don't go to Ron Paul's official site that often myself because I camp out here so much and at places like dailypaul.com. You have to think pretty hard to come up with a graph that does not make it look like Ron Paul is dominating this election (outside of "scientific" polls.)

I think retractions are just used for mistakes. I can't remember ever seeing propaganda retracted, but I could be mistaken.
