Monday was a fun day if you are a fan of Clay Aiken and you tweet.  Twitter was very busy…all because of this:

Laughing it up!!

Clay posted this mid-day Monday and it really caught on.  Everyone seemed to think it was a great response to the sad comments from Todd Akin.

The tweet was re-tweeted and then again and again.  It was re-tweeted by MSNBC and then by the  comedian Andy Richter who has over 312,000 followers.  Besides the re-tweets, people were saying so many positive things about Clay.  It was just so much fun to see the numbers rise and read the great posts!

It is too bad that all the positive twitter movement for Clay began as an ignorant, outrageous statement by a U.S. Representative.  However, it is great that it ended up being something positive for Clay.

It is past midnight as I am writing this and the up-to-date numbers at this time are …

Re-tweets = 1914

Favorites = 640

And, it was put in the TopTweets category for Monday!!

Do you tweet?  If not, I encourage you to give it a try.  It doesn’t cost anything, you don’t have to share private information, and you can use it a lot or only when there is something fun going on.  Besides, twitter numbers are important.  It is an easy way to support Clay!  If you want to give it a try and need help, just ask.
