Amen Amen That is why they hate her. I pray for Sarah and McCain to be protected by the evil forces that attack them. Praise God and his holy angels.

Please read the thread first before commenting. You will see the article initially stated 70K, but edited the estimates as the thread was started. The OP is not trying to mislead.

I’m listening to the live special on CNBC- John Harwood just interviewed Obama (earlier today)...in the middle of the discussion he said to Obama “...but you can’t legislate against bubbles, against people investing in bubbles (paraphrase) ...Obama replies- Don’t be so sure, I disagree we can’t do that...
omigawd.

“Shoot, I dont even know where to find CBS. Its been that long.”
Lol! You sound like me. When I heard on here, that John would announce her as his running mate, I had to run and figure out how to find, and put Fox back on our TV : p

And those numbers are dubious. He supposedly got 30-40,000 in Springfield. I was there and it wasn’t anywhere near that.

Wonderful photo’s! Thanks for posting them.

My problem with the initial estimate was that I checked a few other sites and found them mentioning huge crowds, but they were talking in the 30 to 40 thousand range (these were people blogging from the event)...and when I went to the link on the original post, my firewall went crazy. I got multiple virus alerts...so I was wondering if someone was “using” the site to attract hits by posting a large number. I’ve since read the number was downsized some. I know it’s possible for that many people to be there, and I’d be thrilled that there were that many, it’s just that the source of the reporting set off alarms because of the virus alerts from that site.

I was there and it was awesome. Some of the most polite people I've ever met. A guy near me went down from heat exhaustion. Those next to him helped him and everyone else nearby called 911 on their cell phones. As soon as the paramedics came, we all shouted for them where the injured person was. We all parted like the red sea to let them through and made sure no one was in their way. People from every corner of Florida was there. I was so proud of this day.
