3. And McDole WISHES he cold draw a fifth of those people to his rallies

[morillon]

That's one reason he wanted all those town halls with Obama.

He can't draw a crowd like that, and appearing with Obama was his only chance.

I think Obama was wise to turn him down, 'cause the people showing up to see Obama don't want to hear any of McSame's tired, poisonous bullshit.

13. HUGE CROWD! You know what I find interesting. the MSM will no longer show crowd shots. Why?

The last few times Obama's state campaign speeches were on TV, they kept the camera on Obama and the stage and would not pan the crowd? Why is this? Are they afraid people might actually see the vast difference between an Obama rally and a McCain rally?

18. Hey Edubb

Tell your wife that as a Tennessean I am proud that she got on stage to represent. I keep hearing that the campaign won't even think of coming here because it is hopeless with all of these idiots that live here. But there are more and more people delaring to be a dem here now.
