It’s a really touchy subject with the media. They refuse to publish crowd estimates, and they refuse to publish wide shots of Obama’s crowds unless they’re really impressive photos.
I think they’re hiding the truth (duh), they know Palin has the mojo that Barry doesn’t.
it is also an issue of the type of people who make up those crowds. Obama coordinates the crowd BEHIND him in camera shot. (remember the moslem woman taken off the stage during the heyday of “obama is a moslem” story?)
The MSM and obama crew can’t control the physical makeup of the crowd in front.
