- JLiszka, on 10/26/2008, -16/+411And as a Denverite let me add that McCain's rally yesterday drew 4,000. Yeah, its a close race. /sarcasm
They'll never get away with stealing THIS election!!!! - SheilaNoya, on 10/26/2008, -18/+281I love seeing thousands of intelligent looking people at the Obama rallies.
Now compare that with a McCain/Palin rally where the people are waving toilet plungers in the air and chanting for Joe the Plumber.
'nuff said. - tcbishop12, on 10/26/2008, -22/+207Sen. McCain: I know you told Tom Brokaw today you disagree with all the polls that show you losing badly - because your gut tells you otherwise -- but I think you can scratch off Colorado from your wish list.
And buy plenty of pepto for your gut. You'll need it come November 4. - keigwyn, on 10/26/2008, -7/+173So encouraging to see so many people coming out to hear Obama. I was in the Portland, OR crowd this summer, and I was impressed with his ability to connect to such a large audience. I felt like he was talking directly to me.
But, let's not get cocky. Like Obama says, remember New Hampshire! Vote, make sure everyone you know who is eligible votes--help them vote! Volunteer for the campaign, and make sure your voice is heard and resist those who are trying to suppress the vote! - pjb1959, on 10/26/2008, -2/+164We still need to have all these people VOTE. All the crowds in the world do not do any good if they do not VOTE.
- stanzar, on 10/26/2008, -6/+150I was there - the number of people was incredible. The thousands near me were way in the back. It didn't matter if we couldn't see the stage or even know exactly where it was. The crowd just roared when Obama was finally announced and spoke. There were babies, whole families, the elderly, the young, handicapped people, every one imaginable was there, and all were fervent Obama supporters.
- Echota, on 01/05/2009, -15/+121I can't hardly wait to cast my vote for Obama/Biden!!
Obama/Biden 08!! - gopnot4me, on 10/26/2008, -8/+86I was just in Colorado on vacation from Michigan. With 4 Obama stickers on my car, I had drivers honking and giving me thumbs up and people telling me they loved my stickers thru Indiana, Missouri, Kansas, and Illinois! I have overheard people talking about him at restaurants, and that made me feel good that people are talking, not just following along party lines.
Colorado seems to be a young voters state, and it's drawing many folks from all over the US. Low taxes, tourist economy and many small businesses.
I'm encouraged by the huge turnouts for Obama, compared to the sparse attendance for Palin in Colorado Springs where I was visiting.
Maybe her visit was for the great shopping there!? - freedomjoe, on 10/26/2008, -8/+76Working for the Obama campaign as a volunteer, I've noticed how positive and well organized his campaign is. I was already a supporter, but boy, when I saw how well run his campaign was, and how well everyone works together, I knew he would lead us well. he has an amazing ground operation -- it all comes from the top down. People working for him are cooperative and generous -- and you'll never hear a negative word about his opponent. Just take a moment to compare that with the sad, despicable campaign McCain.Palin and the RNC have run. What a bunch of regressive, divisive sad sacks they are.
Please remind everyone you know to vote the whole ticket -- we need the senate and houses seats, and our local govt is also very important! Things like executions and election fraud are handled at the state level. Make sure we get in honest people who value the constitution and aren't violating the spirit of the law to suit their corrupt purposes (yes, I'm talking about the GOP's massive attempts at disenfranchising voters and election fraud). - Ozzsanity, on 10/27/2008, -1/+68Now why would good Christians be working on a Sunday?
- sullivanst, on 10/26/2008, -3/+64Would that be Joe the Plumber who's really called Sam and who doesn't have a plumbing license, and who would get a bigger tax cut under Obama than McCain for many years?
Yeah, thought so. - inactive, on 10/26/2008, -14/+72Yeah, but McCain's 4,000 is full of REAL Americans.
Out of Obama's 100K I bet you can find like, maybe, TWENTY real 'mericans. - mommywommy, on 10/26/2008, -4/+57I agree. If there is tampering by the Republicans--there will be civil unrest.
- nanexo, on 10/26/2008, -6/+59watching this from central park from my psp wifi lol wish I was there

Just sayin'... - AlexanderZero, on 10/27/2008, -2/+48I think it's a good bet that anyone who attends a rally plans on voting.
- JoeMondo, on 10/27/2008, -1/+44Scratching backwards letters onto your cheek isn't really "work".
- dn11, on 10/26/2008, -16/+58Denver: yet another non-pro-America part of the country
- powermonay, on 10/26/2008, -13/+53Simply amazing, Obama is rocking!!!
- Jsoul87, on 10/26/2008, -14/+52Clearly Colorado has a surplus of fake Americans.
- pintomp3, on 10/26/2008, -3/+41it's sad that a fake plumber is a national hero while a soldier like Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan is not. if anything, the crowd at the mccain/palin rallies would call this fallen solider a terrorist.
- applepro, on 10/27/2008, -0/+37Crowds are nice but they mean nothing on 11/4/08. WE HAVE TO VOTE.
- inactive, on 10/27/2008, -5/+41If even half the crowd votes, that means Obama will win by a land slide. With McCain pulling in less than 10,000 per rally and Obama pulling in over 50k per rally, we can safely assume Obama will win, UNLESS there is vote tampering.
I guarantee if Obama doesn't win it's because the election was tampered with. I can also guarantee Oakland will be rioting.
If Obama loses, we know it wasn't because we didn't get out and vote, but because our votes were stolen. - BrendanSheehan, on 10/26/2008, -3/+39If anything, this election will bring some of the best photos any election has ever seen.
- roxgod666, on 10/26/2008, -3/+39I love how Obama has all the beautiful outdoor landmarks to set up his rallies while John McCain gets hooked up with a sweaty gymnasium.
- BabushkaBlue, on 10/26/2008, -5/+39Well I guess Obama's 100,000 people beats McCain's high school gymnasium full of adoring fans in Zanesville, OH, doesn't it? Yeah, McCain's got Obama "right where he wants him."
- wherearemymeds, on 10/26/2008, -8/+41Absolutely beautiful!!
Obama/ Biden - LeroyJenkems, on 10/26/2008, -3/+35The crowd estimates in my city of Albuquerque was 45,000 people for Obama and 1,500 people for McCain yesterday.
Obama/Biden '08! - Teknikscian, on 10/27/2008, -1/+33""On Sunday morning? LOL!"
I'm a police officer, do you have a problem with that?"
I do now, cause you sound like the stereotypical cop..... - BabushkaBlue, on 10/26/2008, -0/+31Yeah, and just LOOK at all those non-Americans in the crowd.
- Shadoblak, on 10/27/2008, -0/+29We're in the ground now dumbass.....
- sarahlee, on 10/26/2008, -1/+29Good reminders. None of use could have believed - seeing those crowds in '04, that Bush could possibly win again. This times, we don't say "won" until the last vote is counted - and folks in the west best not listen as pundits try to call the election when eastern and central polls close.
Every Single Person who cares about this country, had better vote this time. - topgigmedia, on 10/27/2008, -0/+28100,000 terrorists! /sarcasm
- JLiszka, on 10/27/2008, -0/+28On Sunday morning? LOL!
- bongfarmer, on 10/27/2008, -2/+29akchrs :
Expain to me the link between him asking Obama the question and Obama taking 5 minutes to explain it to him -[]-> life turned around and investigated
Wouldn't that link be John McCain bringing him up and pimping him 15 times at the national debate, making him the subject of intense media scrutiny without consulting the guy(Not to mention that the entire story was BS)?
How can you possibly think Obama did something wrong? He took time to answer the guys concerns, whats wrong with that? If McCain didn't make it the central piece of his campaign no one would of heard of him
/Not to get into how retarded you sound for thinking this somehow makes Obama comparable to Castro, or why its daring to ask Obama questions, or how its a legitamate question when"joe" pretty much lied about everything. Seriously, are you mentally challenaged? - JumpingJack79, on 10/27/2008, -3/+30And ACORN means voting fraud, how?
Let me explain again: If someone writes a bogus name on the registration form, voter registration organizations (like ACORN) are REQUIRED BY LAW to pass those forms on. Every form, valid or invalid, MUST be passed on, otherwise it would be all to easy to throw away valid forms and nobody would ever know. All ACORN is allowed to do with invalid forms is to label them invalid, which they usually do before passing them on. But in any way, an invalid form CAN NOT lead to an actual vote, unless one manages to also forge an ID and somehow produce a fake personal record in a central database.
Now let me ask again: What does ACORN do that is illegal and could change the outcome of the election? Explain or shut up and stop sowing suspicion on a perfectly valid organization doing perfectly valid activity. - rossnyc, on 10/26/2008, -7/+33Hungry for change.
- archer104, on 10/26/2008, -0/+26Damn Finlandites skewing the counts!
- CLAWC, on 10/26/2008, -4/+30COLORADO! In Obama's words:
"Does Denver EVER have a small crowd?"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2A2Jt4WOxN8&NR=1 - rossnyc, on 10/26/2008, -2/+27If Obama wins I'll be the most flag waving m'fer around!
- UniversalGuy, on 10/27/2008, -1/+25Hahaha exactly. Most of us are Unamerican cause we support Obama!
How dare we - kiwiboyus, on 10/27/2008, -3/+27Good job parroting a word you obviously don't understand.
- kcurtiss, on 10/26/2008, -4/+28his election night rally should be insane
- inactive, on 10/27/2008, -1/+25Ug...and the "Drill, baby drill" mantra. What really makes me insane is the total lack of clarity at the McCain rallies. Too many racists xenophobic morons are allowed to run around and spew their bile. Why doesn't McCain just go ahead and allow the Skin Heads and KKK to act as security at his events?
- lhbaker, on 10/27/2008, -0/+24socketman: Here's a comment directly from your profile. This may explain to other people where you're coming from.
"Why? Because you're bigoted and intolerant of my belief that homosexuality is a perversion of the natural order of things - just like child raping? Maybe you should try some tolerance once in a while and we'd all get along better."
That is the most ironic statement I've read all day. A homophobic calling someone intolerant. Oh, the injustice! - rationalist, on 10/27/2008, -0/+23If you were are real police officer and were actually at work and were surfing the Net and posting ignorant ***** on Digg while on the taxpayer's dole, you would be an embarrassment to law enforcement and should be fired.
Why don't you post the name of your "supervisor", so we can show her what you really do "on duty". - jazzguitar18, on 10/27/2008, -3/+26ACORN? you sir are very ignorant.
Obama put money in ACORN years ago, and they are a company that hires ANYONE to go out and register people to vote.
I worked one of these programs ( not with acorn ) where I went out and gathered signatures for amendments here in Colorado. A lot of the people I worked with pulled out yellow pages and put fake names in because you get a dollar per signature.
I never got paid though, and my lawyer and I went in and tryed several times to reason with them, threatening law suits if I didn't get paid and they didn't stop their corrupt bull *****. They told us to come back and when we came back they were closed for the season.
So yes your right there is a lot of bull ***** going on, but it's not Obamas fault. It's just the fact that teens want money and pull out the yellow pages and put names in which really makes ACORN look bad. That's whats going on.
Now, there is vote purging from BOTH sides, and I don't think anyone should deny that it is VERY ***** up when someone eligible to vote gets denied. Sen. Ken Salazar (D) in colorado is being accused of this right now, but so are the republicans ( probably even more so ) - JenniferInMO, on 10/26/2008, -5/+28The most impressive aspect of Obama's popularity is that hate and fear work. It is definitely easier to motivate hate-filled and fearful people grab on to the status quo than it is to motivate fearful people to make drastic change. I am ever impressed with the strategy of his entire life: to motivate and inspire and to uplift and empower people to help themselves.
- fascfoo, on 10/27/2008, -0/+23God you're insane.
