President Barack Obama today drew crowds of 2,600 in Green Bay, Wisconsin and 4,500 in Las Vegas, Nevada, a far cry from the nearly 80,000 people who showed up for a campaign rally of his during the last week of the 2008 campaign in Fairfax, Virginia.
New York Times reporter Mark Landler said the crowd sizes were "Not impressive for the last week of a campaign."

By all measures, enthusiasm for Obama -- even among his base -- has diminished considerably in 2012 from 2008, and Thursday's crowd sizes at Obama's rallies are more evidence of the enthusiasm gap Obama faces going into Election Day.

His crowd in Columbus, Ohio this morning was 2,500. In 2008, his crowd in Columbus was 50,000.
A large chunk of his 2008 voters are just not going to show up. All of the polling is assuming a significant Democrat edge, but Gallup has it right - the enthusiasm is on our side this time.

His small crowds vs Romney’s large crowd sizes and losses in early voting tell me where this is going. It’s good news for us.

YES he is. What is that Big Pouch under his lip? Is he a snuff dipper?
That is exactly what that looks like.
Gosh darn ugly man, inside and out. I heard it said his daughters say he stinks as well, (smoke, I'm sure), but we know otherwise, rofl. He stinks at everything he does.

I was fortunate to meet Congressman and Mrs. Ryan last night at the Vegas victory center. The Nevada early vote is dramatically different than in 2008. All GOTV movement in Nevada tilts heavily toward RR.

Doesn’t mean the ‘no shows’ won’t vote.

They couldn’t even find enough to pay and import to attend? It must be bad.

Yesterday Obama was in Las Vegas, again. The man who trashed our local economy as well as the national economy simply can't get enough of Las Vegas. But, I digress. What was so interesting to me was that I heard and saw multiple clips on the radio and tv of him speaking. He kept on saying the same old crap that was supposed to elicit applause, such as how well he was doing at creating jobs. Well, there was applause at each designated “pause for applause” spot, but in each clip I heard, the applause seemed to be very muted. Even the kool-aide drinkers in Las Vegas appear to have cut back some on their consumption.

Jay Z and the gang will help to assure the obamabots come out and the media will declare it amazing. Sad times.

Who needs people at rallys when you have SEIU maintaining voting machines.
To: COUNTrecount
Most of the Obama rally scenes I've viewed on tv show the Annointed One and maybe the union folks on the stage behind him. Can't see how many (or how few) people are in front.
