Friend counts of whom MittRomney follows
Here we highlight the number of friends of MittRomney's friends. Generally, this is a less useful metric than the follower count (above). That said, we've found that people with a large number of friends are often less "valuable" than those with fewer friends – this is because those people with many friends are less likely to read their Twitter stream (as there is simply too much information).

Total tweets of whom MittRomney follows
