Pull back the curtain on the 2012 Democratic National Convention with Daily Circuit senior producer Chris Dall. Today we talk about what's behind Michele Obama's Twitter surge, delegate diversity and division versus unity in the Democratic ranks. I also put your questions to Chris about the news value of the conventions.

How can anyone construe that "x" number of tweets is good, bad, or indifferent? There is no way to qualify comments or tone, just real number. Just because a tweet mentions Romeny or the FLOTUS it does not amount to positive or negative discussion or interest.......
Good point, Thomas. The Tweet count doesn't mention tone. I think it is worth mentioning and paying attention to the Tweets-per-minute as a reflection of how much a certain group of people are talking about the speech. To take anything more than that away without deeper analysis would be premature.
