An alarming show of apathy. The youth vote is lost.

1. That arena is FULL of mostly "White" people, but the only picture SOME people will see will be

the last one.

[livetohike]

2. Thanks for posting this

Yes, he is extremely unpopular. It's horrible how badly he has slipped with the young people

[liberal N proud]

3. Why was everyone smiling so much?

Great pics.

[EC]

4. Yeah, they all look like they want to vomit

and are being held there against their will.

[rfranklin]

8. they were all bussed in by George Soros!

And probaly paid with food stamps!

[thelordofhell]

5. MSM will probably run with a pic of two teabaggers with picket signs

In another city

[Raine1967]

9. That was sarcasm?

I'd say it was a probability! LOL

[emulatorloo]

6. Young people despise him, as do all liberals and progressives

Several posters on Democratic Underground have told me this, so I know it must be true.

[great white snark]

7. It's true. All the people above are wax dummies.

Billions were diverted from food stamps and Medicare so Madame Tussauds could create the crowds. Despicable I tells ya.

[sinkingfeeling]

10. Was he having a beer with some of those guys?

[Rhiannon12866]

11. I was going to take issue with this, since I have family in Colorado...

Until I saw the faces...

[rhiannon55]

43. I have family in Colorado, too

And they, of course, hate him.

[Rhiannon12866]

44. I have to say that they put on a really good front, LOL.

Sent this thread to my cousin, since I'm sure she would have wanted to be there, but I'm not sure how far away it was...

[ybbor]

12. Someone is great at photoshop!

LOL!

[racaulk]

13. Which pic do you think is Photoshopped? And why?

[AzDar]

15. Riiight. Speaking of Photoshop, your boy Mittens had better have lots of photoshoppin' minions

on the payroll...it's the ONLY way he'll ever have crowds like this at his appearances.


GoBama!

[babylonsister]

17. You obviously don't watch much news, or at least the

channels that showed this visit. Maybe you 'wish' it was photoshopped? Got a link to support your contention?

Yea, didn't think so.

[GoCubsGo]

20. Might it be sarcasm?

Maybe the poster is playing off the OP's subject line?

[progressoid]

19. I think I see a gift for you in the near future...

[JoePhilly]

27. Yea ... the people who built Mitt Rommey ... he's human clip art!

[Rhiannon12866]

45. And really, really, really busy, LOL.

Welcome to DU, ybbor! Glad to have you with us!

14. I find it amusing that the GOP has to ship in supporters for events like this

Whereas Obama just fills up whatever venue he is at.

I remember him speaking at Rodney Square in Wilmington DE. Not only was the entire square (about the size of a city block) filled to the brim with people but the streets surrounding the park was filled too. And the buildings that surrounded the block, people were standing on the ledges of the building just to get a glimpse.

Same thing when Obama did the train tour in the NE right before the Inauguration. He had a stop at Tubman Garrett park in Wilmington. The park is right next to the Amtrak station is much bigger than Rodney Square. It was where the Bidens joined the Obamas on the train trip. Not only was that park packed, people were climbing the trees to get a better view and some people actually brought their boats out so they could get into the event (the park is along the Christiana River). THere was something very amazing about that event - the park was named after Harriet Tubman and Thomas Garett, two important figures in the Underground Railroad during the slavery years in the USA. Garrett lived in Wilmington and would regularly provide a safe place to stay for the slaves travelling thru for freedom.

23. That's part of the GOP jobs plan

When they're not obsessing about abortion (pretty much 24 hours a day) they are thinking of getting Americans back to work, and what better way than to do it is to hire a couple dozen people to take part in a Rent-A-Crowd for a Repug event?

I wonder if meals are included.

[CTyankee]

25. Lynn, that sounds transformative!

It must have been an extraordinary moment to experience. The symbolism is tremendous...

[freshwest]

37. Thanks for the personal touch.

[CTyankee]

16. Thank you, Julia!

This is wonderful. It made me realize that college kids are given hope when they see our President. They see him so confident and upbeat and they are then confident and upbeat. And they are respectful and not full of hate and fear.

They make me feel better about this campaign. I can't imagine Mitt getting anywhere NEAR those crowds, those smiles and lit up faces!

[JNelson6563]

22. I completely agree!

[Kath1]

39. You are so right, CTyankee!

My 24 year old daughter is a volunteer for the Obama campaign! Her friends are 100% for Obama, also. No hate, no fear. Just hope and excitement about the future. Mitt totally turns them off. Young women want the country to move forward, not backward!

18. Except for the librulfacist baby doing the "sieg heil" wave.

He sure brainwashes 'em at young age.


(For those who couldn't figure that out.

[JNelson6563]

21. lolz

[CTyankee]

24. that is SO evil! Brainwashing a little baby! I am appalled...

[ellie]

26. I didn't know he

was in my neck of the woods! I would have loved to have seen him!

[proverbialwisdom]

28. Great photos! Thanks for posting.

[Lost-in-FL]

29. What a hateful crowd.

You can see it in the smiles.

[blm]

30. Wildly unpopular it seems.

.

[Liberal_in_LA]

31. photos 5 through 7, you can spot the serious looking secret service guy - the bald guy

[guappo1]

32. Loved in Colorado

Have family who attended that rally it was great. They respect and care for the president. It reminds me of the late sixty with McCarthy and Bobby Kennedy and the support of college students

[freshwest]

38. Welcome to DU!

[polichick]

33. I really hope young voters actually go to the polls - and with the right ID...

Voter suppression will be enough of a problem without voters suppressing themselves!

Maybe people will plan VOTING PARTIES via social networking.

[madrchsod]

34. i saw him up close and personal when he was running for senator

he really is something up close and personal.

poor mittens... he really does`t stand a chance

[tblue37]

35. Rember Hitler's comment when warned that the pope was displeased with him?

He asked, "How many battalions does the pope have?"

I ask, "How many voting machine companies does the Democratic Party own?"

No matter how wildly popular Obama is, if the election is anything less than an absolute blow-out landslide, they will manage to steal it with voter suppression tactics and vote hacking, as they have done so often before.

I am quite sure Obama's mandate was much larger in 2008 than was recorded, and equally sure that many slightly close House and Senate races actually won by Democrats were swung to the Republicans through vote hacking.

[Scuba]

41. +1

[freshwest]

36. Bwahaha! WTG!

[Kath1]

40. Thanks, Julie!

I can hear some of the reactions now - "Oh my God! I'll bet they are all anti-war and support women's rights, too! What in the world is happening to our country?!!!"

[Democrats_win]

42. No change HERE--look at this from 2008
