45. how many 100K rallies has Obama had by now? dozens?
I was going to try to keep track but lost count after the umteenth one! Then there are all those "smallish" ones of 49-60K that none of the cable TV folks showed. Happy, happy!!

48. Only three or four, actually.
But given that Obama now holds ALL of the top five slots for the largest political rallies in American history, I think that's good enough. :)

Denver could have been bigger if they had the space.

31. I think Oregon and Denver were about 80,000. St Louis was near 100,000.
This VA rally may surpass them all.

30. I knew this would be his biggest rally in America.
They deliberately chose the fairgrounds as their venue to accomodate a huge crowd.

Virginia is the key to Obama's victory.

34. When you can pull 35,000 in Springfield MO anything is possible, way to go Virginia.
I have attended political rallies since I was 5 years old (more than 1/2 a century). Never have I experienced anything like an Obama rally. They were even polite to the McCain hecklers who harassed people standing in line for 4 hours. This is not just a "Political Campaign" it is a movement filled with positive energy.

46. plus the people not in the camera view! remember the Kerry turnout in, what was it Seattle
that was GIGANTIC? It is so great to see mass turnouts for our candidates. Kerry really won in 04, but I think the Obama win we're going to hopefully see, will be so big that theft will not be able to be done without being so obvious.
