Excerpt:

President Obama today took his "fiscal cliff" campaign to Twitter, personally responding to questions about his proposals for averting a combination of looming tax hikes and spending cuts via an online Q&A session on the popular social media network. The session, in which he answered eight questions on everything from tax cuts to the Chicago Bears, reflects a recent effort by the White House to use campaign-reminiscent methods to interact with the public on contentious policy issues. "hey guys - this is barack. ready to answer your questions on fiscal cliff & #my2k. Let's get started," Mr. Obama wrote this afternoon, kicking off the Q&A session.

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
