Tweets running against Tea Party

By Steve Safran 

CNN is running an interesting state-by-state analysis of Twitter. It broke down 21,000 tweets to find out the mood of people about the Tea Party. Notes CNN:

“The analysis of relevant tweets reveals four common categories or threads of conversation: why people are voting for or against a person or policy, a general distaste for Washington politics and elections, and a desire to get out the vote or indicate he or she has voted.”

The anti-Tea Party tweets are about twice the number of pro-Tea Party tweets, but CNN breaks it down further than that.
