5. question

do the people on the ground hear the music, or is that just for us?

[Muttocracy]

7. I would hate to try to introduce Obama with him on stage at the same time! nt

[Muttocracy]

10. but this former Repub. Vet is doing great! I looked up Elko on a map - pretty remote. nt

31. They call themselves the last cow town in the west.

However, thanks to some casinos and hotels, it's a little oasis of civilization in the midst of a rather remote area.

[Muttocracy]

32. Looks beautiful, and has an airport. He said he's been there 3 times - I bet

they appreciate that!

[Cleita]

34. It's actually close to the Ruby Mountains which are as close to pristine

wilderness as you are going to get in the lower 48. The Nevadans don't allow any motorized vehicles or any development that makes a human footprint there. If you want to go into them you have to hike or go by horse. This is why I get so mad when the nuke energy plant people come in and say it's okay to dump our nuclear waste in Nevada.

[Cha]

37. Oh is that who that was.."a former repub vet"..

I got in on the end of his talk..thanks!

[Muttocracy]

38. yep, he also talked about being ashamed of the state of health ins. industry he's part of! nt

[grantcart]

30. Faux News showed Obama in Elko & Gallup 47-45 for Obama

but showed that shill Karl Cameron giving McPain talking points.

About that Gallup poll showing Obama up 2 pts over McPain....they said well, that's just a swing and a statistical tie.

That may be true it's statiscal tie, but they never said that when McPain was 2pts over Obama.

Geez, these guys!

[Cha]

33. Was that Passionate Enough!?!!

Had me Verklempt..but then I've been with him since the end of 2007:bounce: and see how far we've come today!

[elkston]

39. He was especially animated today.

The obvious highlights were the "staff meeting" line and also this one: "He said he'd appoint a commision. That's Washington speak for I'll get back with you later!".

But I really liked the end where he drove home the point that WE have funded his campaign and WE are the ones to spread the word, not the media or the pundits.

One slight missed opportunity:
He said that he would protect Social Security and the McCain would privatize it. He should have then reminded us again of the finiancial crisis and what a disaster it would have been if SS funds were in the open market.

But other than that, a killer campaign stop!

[Cha]

41. I caught that about Social Security

because that's the reason I got into politics back in 2000 in the first place. Hope he brings it up again with just those points for those who need the connection made.

Yes, it was very important to drive home that we are funding and spreading the word to get Obama elected President and Biden our Vice President!

I loved it when Obama said that we want a "legacy of opportunity for future generations."!

And we need to strenghten our country from the bottom up!

[Muttocracy]

40. on his way to Las Vegas? And another Biden event this p.m. in Ohio? nt
