2. I know-that's where I saw it! I really hope everyone DOES go vote early for him!
It will be the difference between winning and losing.

10. Cool. I saw him today at 3pm in Las Vegas, and he's still at it!
In fact, he's been at it since early this morning in Reno. What an intense schedule!

23. Yep
I went to his rally here in Vegas today. I ended up just standing and listening from outside since there was still a line a mile long after he already started speaking. I heard there was something like 18 thousand people there.

McCain was there earlier today and didn't even draw 1000 people per CNN.

44. The local TV station said supporters began lining up at NOON
the gates didn't open until 7PM and they low balled the estimate at 20,000 expected.

35. If it weren't for Obamas website.......I'd never see a full speech
Why is C-Span covering these events? Don't they do Road to the whitehouse anymore?

37. The irony. Obama does the show of hands for those making less than $250k
and says I hope the cameras are catching that...

Watching CNN live feed, where just a little earlier at a Palin rally, the cameras panned the entire audience, focusing on signs and people doing Palin-ite things.

For Obama however, the cameraman has a stick neck. We'll never know just how many people in that audience raised their hands to answer the $250k question.

Sometimes it sucks being liberal.

38. The media is pretty UNFAIR when it comes
to Democrats. I really hope someone from the Democratic party in the senate or house bring the FAIR DOCTRINE BACK. Maybe Kucinich..

47. I can't say enough good things about this man. He's absolutely right on.
This country has suffered for the lack of a leader like this man.

He talks about sacrifice. This is crucial. Most have been afraid to mention that word. Or when he said that people need to turn off the lights when they leave a room. This is not trivial. This was the way I was raised as a child. But most people, no, most Americans, don't see things this way. And it's why we're in the mess we're in. I've said "less, slower", and Obama is going to bring change that we need. And I'm not paraphrasing him. It's just the way it is.

Pinch me. I can't believe it.
