Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) (Joe Amon, The Denver Post)The crowd enveloping Barack Obama when he accepts the Democratic nomination for president at Invesco Field at Mile High will be asked to get to work for the privilege of witnessing the historic event live.
In a half-hour interview Wednesday with The Denver Post, Obama's deputy campaign manager, Steve Hildebrand, said he wants to use the ticketing process as a massive recruitment tool meant to bring in supporters from all 50 states and energize them to carry the campaign into the final 60 days of the general election.
"We're going to ask those 80,000 people in that stadium to march out of there and go with very specific instructions and goals to register millions of new voters," Hildebrand said.

"Every single person is going to be a level of seriousness," Hildebrand said. "You know, 'Tell us how you're going to get there from Maine. Tell us how you're going to get there from Florida. Give us a sense of whether or not you're really serious about this. If you're not, we're going to provide someone else with this.' "
Those who want a seat will begin the process at their local Democratic Party office. While demonstrating their ability to attend, they also will be encouraged to sign on to the campaign as volunteers.
"They fill out a form; there's a conversation," Hildebrand said. "We ask them and encourage them to register voters and to get out the vote and those activities that are important to us. It's not a requirement, but it's going to be an encouragement."

Oh, let it rain that night.
Please let it rain.
Maybe they are starting to worry about filling the stadium now that the Massiah is starting to cool off.
On the other hand, can you imagine a bunch of jacked up Obamites looking for new voters. It'll by like Moonies at a shopping center. Middle America is going to love this.
The price to see Obama the Messiah..................................Priceless!!

I’d luv to see Hillary steal the nomination from Barry and then have to face all of his supporters int eh that stadium, after all is said and done.
And it would be a real hoot if these “peaceful” Obama supporters tore down the stadium (although I’m a season ticket holder for the Broncos), just so that Gov. Ritter and Mayor Hickenlooper would be ruined politically by their work to bring this folly to Denver.
The graphic below shows, the only difference between o-B-ama and o-S-ama is just a bit of B.S.
Comment from the Denver Post, which shows me there must be more conservatives in Denver than I thought.
Yes. That’s the ticket. Give all the little soldiers their marching orders! All this just to be at the crowning of their messiah. Ha! :lol:

With plenty of lightning.
We'll see if there's a God.
