2. CNN just lost the stream, I'm sure it will be back soon (I hope).

3. Thanks for Heads Up

:hi:

[milkyway]

4. You're welcome, but I hope it will be back. I don't know if they lost it because of

technical difficulties, or because the event was going to start late. The audio became garbled before it cut out, so I think it's technical problems.

5. It's back, and Obama is on stage just opening by thanking people.

Hey, JFM! :hi:

8. There he is folks!

Youth is amazing!
I am a Senior and when I see a young man that is quick thinking, agile and not ready for Medicare, it makes a difference.

How HC and NC must look to a young voter!

[JayFredMuggs]

9. "HC and NC"?

Hillary change and No change?

[jenmito]

10. He finally pointed out that Hillary didn't read the intelligence by saying, "If you want someone who

will actually read the intelligence, someone who has the judgement, etc., I'm the one you want picking up that phone at 3 in the morning." (paraphrased-he said it much better)

[milkyway]

12. CNN lowers the crowd mics too much, so you lose the sense of enthusiasm from the crowd.

It seems like he's speaking in a vacuum.

Otherwise, CNN.com has been doing a great job streaming many of the campaign events. They have Hillary live right now from Oregon.

14. But they kicked it up at the end

I think they do fine. You can see the enthusiasm from the people clapping and waving signs, the extra noise isn't really necessary.

13. Missoula loves Obama

That was terrific. But now I'm homesick. :cry:

[JayFredMuggs]

15. Is Missoula a college town? Just curious N/T

[sandnsea]

16. College, Environmentalists, Old Hippies

Yes. The liberal center of the state. Then there's Butte, which they were in last night or going to be at tonight, can't remember. Mining town, unions, Irish Catholic, voted Dem in every election since statehood. Plus the reservations. There are also pockets of Democrats from the old railroad union days. There's plenty of opportunity to get them in the GE, with the right message.
