Kelly Clarkson Ron Paul Sales Bump Debunked

The Kelly Clarkson Ron Paul lovefest just hit a snag. The liberal media is refusing to acknowledge that Ron Paul's supporters have contributed to an increase in Kelly's album sales after she endorsed Paul for president. Billboard cites Nielsen Soundscan numbers: Kelly's sales fell 40% from the previous week before the endorsement. However, her digital downloads increased by 232%. Billboard says that Ron Paul supporters aren't responsible for that, but rather the $7.99 sales price and the promotion of Kelly's "iTunes Sessions" EP on iTunes.

I'm really disappointed. I thought the whole endorsement thing has turned into good news for Kelly. However, some people just hate Ron Paul so much, they are willing to throw her under the bus! Billboard didn't even bother to look into day to day numbers to see if the 24-hours after the endorsement bump is true -- instead they went with the weekly numbers.

See Kelly? You should have done your research before attaching your name to a candidate -- he's co-opted you now. Watch the video here:

From YouTube:

"I have to admit that I didn't know a whole lot about her," Paul said, "But I do know that our supporters were so enthusiastic about it they went out and bumped up sales of her record by 600%.
