3. remarks

“The storm hasn’t quite passed yet. Sometimes the skies look cloudy. And it’s dark. You think the rains will never pass, but here’s what I understand: As long as all of us are together, as long as we are all committed, then there’s nothing we can’t do.”

Barack Obama - Saturday 27 September 2008

...just before the dawn. But I promise you, the dawn is coming!"

5. The droplets of water are just a beautiful effect on an awesome venue

It looks like it was just inspiring to be there. I envy you Virginia!

It also looks like it was fun despite the rain!

[mcctatas]

10. Uh-oh...

better change the thread title lest some freeper happens by and thinks it says "26,000 Virgins in the rain for Barack Obama" they'll be calling him a "muslin" even more;)

[No Passaran]

15. I'm not worried about them

They're still complaining about Katie Couric

[mcctatas]

16. Who's the pitbull with lipstick now Sarah?!

getting owned by katie, how sad...

[saltpoint]

52. As the boys on Southpark say, "Lame!" nt

[Starry Messenger]

33. Really? They said that?!

Rain is bad now. No wonder they pshaw at global warming. Do they think God just turns on the sprinklers at night if you've been good? Argh.

[quantass]

[ShortnFiery]

27. I was there and I kid you not, there were at least the same number of people waiting

to get in (25,000-30,000). Although gates opened at 3PM, people began lining up at 7AM. :wow:

The line of people 10 folks across went seemingly forever.

Unbelievable! It was beautiful. :loveya:

[vanderBeth]

28. Was I the only one who read the title incorrectly at first?

A kick for the Old Dominion, and for Obama/Biden turning it blue this November.

[K Gardner]

37. Unbelievably inspiring.. thank you !

[TeamJordan23]

38. Some of the best pics in DU History. Thanks! nm

[ChimpersMcSmirkers]

39. Beautiful pics! VA's going blue!

GOBAMA!

[Barack_America]

42. It really is. And VA is voting already.

Via in-person absentee ballots. So, far all we know, VA may already BE blue. ;)

[VADem11]

40. This photo is the best

All of these photos are just epic.

[intaglio]

47. Politely disagree

I think this is better; man speaking to man - what's the betting the boy is a serviceman?

[vaberella]

49. I love them all...but the rainbow one was great.

It was just so cool to see someone who seemed as if she was willing to walk over people to O. It was amazing.

I love it, it's fantastical.

:kick:

[me b zola]

54. That's my favorite too

And I share your impression of the young man with the high-n-tight haircut. That young man looks as though he's counting on Obama for leadership that has been sorely lacking for the past 8 years. Incredible pic.

[Claire Beth]
