I love our president.
Watching the rally. He's still bringing out huge crowds of young people. Who says they're not motivated and enthusiastic? He's losing his voice, but it's great to see him in campaign mode.

2. I really really like our President also
so take all you tea party people, third party etc. Notice I didn't say republicans because tea people and repukes are one and the same.

3. Yep, some 'enthusiasm gap' with the young people, huh...
I don't think so! 35,000 at the rally, a good number of them are young people.

4. The media want you to believe their narrative...and it doesn't meet reality
so cable and C-SPAN are not even carrying this...they suck!

5. Crowd estimate: 35,000, the biggest since he became Prez, so far!
I love him and his wife. I'm proud of them both. He works and has worked damned hard.

lift.

They click big time.

10. I've heard that speech several times, but I hang on every word anyway.
They are a dynamite couple and so genuine. Just to watch them interact with the crowd was something else. They truly seem to enjoy it.

Eat your heart out, Boner!

12. He was HOT
I saw that and said if this doesn't get out the Democratic vote, nothing will. I heard someone comment (I believe it was tony Blair) that Bill Clinton is the best natural-born politician he has ever seen. I think Obama gives Bill a run for his money. He was PASSIONATE. And people were responding.

We are taking three of our grandkids to hear him speak with Sen. Murray, in Seattle, on Thursday.

Yay!

15. Obama delivered big time for young people. Student loans and HC that has gone into effect
He is doing a good job of hammering home the fact that Republicans want to take that away.

18. we sure could use some POTUS or FLOTUS magic here in Michigan
gonna end up with a nut case Bush wanna be (R) for a Governor unless we can get turnout way up with young voters and minorities.

If only us old white folk show up to vote this state is screwed.


An (R) Governor here could make it tougher for Pres. Obama's reelection campaign too.

37. The only lack of enthusiasm I see is with the media.
Watched CNN lead up to when the Obama's were going to speak only to have Anderson cut in with the miner's.

Fox News only mentioned it was Obama's 11th visit to Ohio this election.

Another one on Fox News compared Obama on the campaign trail to Clinton saying Clinton has campaigned more than Obama this election. I guess they don't consider one is currently presiding as the POTUS. They really are something else.
