NBC's Brian Williams: "This Is Not The 2008 Obama Campaign" (VERY SMALL CROWDS)
MSNBC's The Rundown with Chuck Todd (via FreeRepublic.com) ^ | 10/25/12 | Brian Williams

Posted on 10/25/2012 11:09:17 AM PDT by StandAndDeliver1

". . . this is not '08," NBC's Brian Williams said to Chuck Todd this morning on MSNBC. "These are not the crowds, this is not the candidate; he's an incumbent looking for reelection. The country has been though a financial shock and we're in kind of an outdoor park, courtyard, it's hard to say any of this with clarity, with surety, but last time this could have been 50,000 people and today, I think, we're pushing 5 (thousand). It's just a different time, a different campaign. They are slugging it out. It really will be hand-to-hand in the battlegrounds."

Slugging it out if you try to stop Obamathugs from stealing your signs.

"They are slugging it out. It really will be hand-to-hand in the battlegrounds."

And now we see why bayonets remain so important.

Well, the small crowds are NOT THE RESULT OF EVERYONE BEING AT WORK. YOU'VE SEEN TO THAT, HUSSEIN!

Its going to be a historic? election. The first black President to get voted out of office.
What a shame 0bama could have been truly great.

Instead, he squandered his INHERITANCE in exchange for a failed attempt at turning the US into some kind of third world socialist style “democracy”.

In ‘08 around the Northern suburbs of Chicago, the atmosphere was thick with Obama intensity.

Today there is zero for zero. What you do see is pockets of low key sniping about Romney from liberals.

Mr. Williams 50,000 shrinking down to 5,000 won’t be much of a hand to hand battle except in your liberal fantasies.

The only reason Obama had crowds that were 50,000 + was because he would show up at concerts, mostly announced, where a rock concert was ayimg.

He was never the main draw....EVUH!!!

The whole 2008 campaign was staged theagrics, with the ever present court jesters, known as NBCABCCBSCNNPBS, not once, NOT ONCE!!, Reporting the real facts around his appearances.

The press acted like the whole they are and presented a false narrative that, omitted who the real draw was.

They can’t present their BS the same way this time around because it would be impossible to hide a President much less shield him in a rock concert. It would be more than a logistical nightmare and the Secret Service would refuse to go along with it.

Bankrupt Barry should either away on January 20th and feel lucky for not becoming an unidicted fraud.

I keep telling my wife, when she gets jittery about the election, that the enthusiasm for Obama is not there anymore.

In 2008 it was everywhere you looked, especially on college campuses, and now it isn't. How di I know it's not, since I'm never on a college campus?

Because if there was any enthusiasm for Obama anywhere, it would be the lead story on every alphabet news program, it would be the headline of every liberal rag in the country in 4 inch high print...it's not there.

What the liberal media doesn't report often tells you more than what they do.

a different time, a different campaign

I think the American people are seeing Barack Hussein for the yapping, lying street hustler that he is .... and not a very good one at that.
