This is the year 2015. Whether we like it or not, Twitter is all around us. Indeed, a candidate can now be measured by the number of Twitter followers he or she has. This megathread will be used to keep track of who is gaining followers and who is not. It should also be used when candidates launch their zingers against one another via Twitter.
