I like the fact that Obama had it at Mile High because there is no doubt on crowd size
I mean, you do these outdoor events it's always a juggling of the head count. The M$M screeds want to lower it so it sounds like '50 people happened to stroll by when he was talking'. Trust me - they do that all the time with protests.
But with the event at Mile Hile (and I'm sure they could have easily done it just in downtown Denver requiring no tickets) - there was a head count that could not be denied - 84,000 people.
1. EXACTLY. It's not like what the M$M did to the anti-war rallies,
reporting (when they *did* report) on only 10% of the actual crowd, because "we don't keep those numbers anymore." Yeah, not since Bush stole the presidency.
3. I was blown away seeing how many people were there
Hearing about the stadium being full is one thing, but seeing an aerial shot of all the people who'd come to see Obama was amazing. After seeing his speech I was more than a little jealous that I couldn't be there to see it in person, too.
