Great post. Love all the historical perspective you’ve been providing. This one is especially timely. Keep it up.
Most are from neighboring Illinois.
So what.
Ironic, Wright?
Obama’s home base St. Louis and East St. Louis. Why is he camapigning where he shouldn’t have too.
Nice find! And you know Mondale really did do well with those city-dwellers, as will the marxist messiah. But guess what, McCain will still win the electoral vote.
Interesting. 1984. 100,000 people at a Dem rally. Breathlessly reported by the MSM.
Same as it ever was... same as it ever was... same as it ever was...

For a second there, I thought this was new. I was wondering why Ferraro was suddenly campaigning for Barry until I saw the date.
“Democrats Draw Crowd of 100,000”
Govt. cheese being handed out?
Absolutely correct, don’t believe what you read or hear about Obama’s got it hands down, THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO COME OUT AND VOTE. REMEMBER THE MEDIA IS IN THE OBAMA CAN, THEY WANT A LOW VOTER TURN OUT OF REPUBLICANS AND COSERVATIVES, GET OUT AND VOTE
It would be sweet irony if MCain won Minnestota. Ya, you betcha!
Great Post!
Thought maybe Obie Kinobi from KRYPTON had pulled that olde bag of wind Mondale and the Demorat Beauty Queen Gerri for one last try at saving his pompous Bass!
Why haven’t any reporters asked him how much he enjoyed his IRANIAN CAVIAR? At the same time, the Reporters could ask him if its TRUE that he refuses to use anything except genuine IRANIAN PRAYER RUGS AND FIGS?
Not that hard to get 100,000 down to the riverfront in St. Louis at all. Their July Fourth festival draws 2,000,000 or more for several days running.
Not sure McCain/Palin would draw. St. Louis City is heavily demo so the crowds would have to be from the suburbs.
Democrats Draw Crowd of 100,000 morons looking for free handouts and shouting “Save us Obama! Save us!”
Consistency counts for more than one big draw, and as I said, I think the media pumped up the numbers the way they always do.
I saw this on t.v. and thought, oh how convenient. Trolls on our conservative websites are picking up on the fact that their rally numbers pale in comparison with ours. So what do they do? Do’nt ya’ll think this is just a little wierd? I do. It was set up. Those people aren’t predominatly from MO, hell no. This was set up, it’s fake.
I think another big part of it is, that even though I’m a conservative and heard that Bill Clinton was swinging through my neck of the woods, I went down there to see if I could catch a glimpse of him. It wasn’t an election year, but dang, there were a lot of people, and he did actually stop the limo along the hi-way and got out and shook hands. I shook his hand just for the hell of it.
My other conservative friend asked me, “why’d you do that?”
“Well,” I said, “if you knew the devil was coming to town, wouldn’t you want to see what he looked like in person?”
Do you know that when I was a Senior in H.S., Mondale came to my hometown in Ga. during his campaign? Students were FORCED to go see him campaign during school hours. At the time we were glad to be skipping classes, but looking back, I see things differently.
Who was the Hollywood celebrity draw today?
