Let's take a look at some other pictures of that rally to put things in perspective:

KPIC:

Compared to the pix above, we see the top bit uncropped, showing the crowd does not stretch out to inifinity.

Is there more?

Yep.

Same from the Salem News:

Now we see that the width of the crowd is also not infinite, on either side, and the crowd is also confined in front of the candidate.

And look where the photo line has been set up. See the bleachers in the foreground? They are positioned so the ONLY perspective the photographers can get is the candidate in front of people, and if the pictures are cropped creatively, a seemingly infinite sea of people.

Yahoo is running this as their lead news photo.

The ones of Hillary are showing her talking to small crowds of 'stereotypical' country folk.

Is this fair journalism or 'selectively edited' photojournalism to imply that Obama has infinite crowds wherever he goes?

Oh yes, one more to put the 'unprecedented' notion to rest, here is the Haughty John Kerry in Portland in 2004:

A savvy photo editor can even make John Kerry look like a messiah... ;)

Get this out to keep Hillary supporters from being disillusioned. She needs our help to perservere until Denver! :D
