WOW .... Look at the crowd in Denver 100,000 or more for Obama

[Ichingcarpenter]

Shouldn't they be in Church (hinted faux)? I just saw the crowd size on Faux news.
Nobody else on the TV stations showed the size of the crowds or even the beginning
of the rally

I'm from Denver and that area in front of the capital can hold a lot of people.
30,000 is a very conservative estimate. Faux just changed it and said 150,000 might show

I changed the title because the news updated the size of the crowd from 30,000 to 100,000

1. link?

[Ichingcarpenter]

4. It was on Faux news, I've got newsmix on DirecTV

lets me watch 8 news channels at once. The Faux cameraman did a wide
pan of the crowd size. Then the commentators went back to pimping McCain.
The crowd looked huge and that area can handle a lot of people.

It look at least to be around 30,000.

[BlooInBloo]

2. I would like to look at it. I would like to look at it very much.

[BrklynLiberal]

3. Here is a link to a live webcam showing the front of the building..

5. thanks for that link!

[patrice]

6. The People are listening to one another, re Obama, and not Corporate Media elites.

[Ichingcarpenter]

7. Faux just said 100,000 to 150,000 now

Showed another crowd view.

[RichardRay]

8. Ho hum - again? ANOTHER 6 figure rally?

Can't we get some real enthusiasm out of this country?

Sheeesh...

[Ichingcarpenter]

9. Amazing shot Faux just showed the newest update

Course no one else has showed it on TV..... Faux? I have to go to Faux to
get the crowd size?

Good lord.

[patrice]

10. He is the opposite of what the Media is. Of course they oppose their anti-thesis.

[Hawkeye-X]

33. I was there!!!! Watch for pics soon!

I must have taken a lot of pics! Interpreter finally showed up!

[Ichingcarpenter]

36. Great HawkeyeX.... can't wait to see them!

Saw your post earlier.

[RagAss]

24. I hear you... It's McCain comeback week on CNN and MSNBC I guess.

[sarahdemva]

11. BIG DEAL!! SO WHAT!!

mccain had joe the plumber, bob the racist, and judy the bigot at his rally!!

[ElsewheresDaughter]

12. here's a picture.....

[Ichingcarpenter]

13. Thanks great photo..... This area can hold a huge amount of people

Denver was gonna supply free bus service but decided not to.

[Faygo Kid]

14. Thanks!

Unbelievable. People are so hungry for hope.

[moobu2]

15. That's beautiful...thanks

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. "And who are those people over there on the Capital steps?"

[nyhuskyfan]

17. Hey look!

You can see the shadow from the St. Louis Arch again! It's a fake. A fake I say!

/sarcasm

[blaze]

18. Thanks for a great pic!! n/t

[rockymountaindem]

19. Holy cow

I didn't look that big on TV

[Ichingcarpenter]

21. Why aren't you there? I'm jealous the temperature is 45 degrees

Are the Aspens turning? lol!

[rockymountaindem]

27. Because I'm in Boston

:)

[XOKCowboy]

31. I'm in Vegas and saw it on TV...

*sigh*

I had faith my fellow Coloradans would turn out en masse.

[rockymountaindem]

37. Two of my friends are going to see Obama later at CSU

That's cool but, y'know I got to be at Mile High for the big speech and all, so I'm like totally jaded about these things ;)

[Ichingcarpenter]

38. It sucks... I live in California now which means we get nothing

but I can still be proud of Denver. Fort Collins only has a population of 118,000
the same size of the town I live in now. It will be interesting to see how many show up there.

[rockymountaindem]

39. Obama's going to speak in the middle of Colorado State Univ.

so I predict there will be more than a few people.

[Ichingcarpenter]

40. That one needed tickets, which were free and sold out

from the reports I read.

So it will be really large for Fort Collins

[XOKCowboy]

53. 45000+ people in Ft. Collins?

Can you believe that? If Obama loses this election we need real election reform because it will have been stolen.

Oh and did you notice that there are no videos of anybody inciting violence against the Repugs? Contrast that to the pukes going to the McCain rally Friday. That was truly sickening.

[XOKCowboy]

52. You got to see him at MIle High??

I'm WAY jealous. That was a once in a lifetime event.

I'll be in Denver on election day but working. I did what I could do by voting early for Barack Obama. It might be the most important vote I've ever cast.

[renate]

20. who'd have thought that many people would show up for McCain?

Oh, that's right... THEY DIDN'T.

[Smuckies]

23. Wow.....wow.

[BlooInBloo]

25. Holy shit.

[FrenchieCat]

26. Great Gazoo!

:wow:

[Blue Diadem]

28. Thank you. That's a beautiful sight.

I could never imagine any R's getting that size crowd.

[NotThisTime]

45. Now THAT'S a rally there! Wow!!!

[Cha]

22. I was born and raised in Denver..and this

is really exciting stuff here!

[PolNewf]

29. Denver Post story

[Vinca]

30. That's amazing. Meanwhile, Gramps struggles to break 4 figures. nt

[slinkerwink]

32. wow! great pick up!

[Ichingcarpenter]

34. Denver Police Chief confirms over 100,000 largest rally yet in the US

Once again I got this news from the reporter on Faux that covered the rally
story originally

[thewiseguy]

35. Thats right. Denver beats everyone again!

[MadBadger]

41. We (Madison) didnt get a chance to beat Denver

It would have been close!

[Ichingcarpenter]

43. Isn't it rescheduled? I thought I heard that?

I love Madison, nice city.

[MadBadger]

44. Not that Ive heard of

Hes up double digits here....and McCain and Obama are avoiding it for that reason.

[FatDave]

50. Madison is my favorite place I've ever lived.

But I don't think you have the population to get 100,000. Course you are a liberal lot.

Damn, now I want a burger from Dotty Dumpling's.

[magdalena]

55. Pshh....

We got 100k for.... KERRY!!! Probably could've doubled that for Obama. :headbang:

[FatDave]

58. OK, I stand corrected.

But I still wish for that burger.

[jzodda]

42. Thats great! Colorado is Obama country!

I wish he would come to NY for a rally like that, but I realize we aren't a battleground. Nobody has to tell us how great Obama is here, cause we already know! :)

[cui bono]

46. No pics? :(

You said "look at". Now you made me :cry:.

[Ichingcarpenter]

47. #12 post.... has a great photo

[cui bono]

48. I did find that, thanks.

[Elle1993]

49. It was absolutely amazing

I have never been to a place with so many people looking for the same thing

Change is coming!

[progressoid]

51. Welcome to DU Elle1993!

[Life Long Dem]

54. God was in Denver with 100,000 plus for the crowd as well as Obama and all of us..

Your days are numbered Faux!

[Mossbeach]

56. Bush has been able to draw crowds ten times as big......

To protest his stupid actions.....:D

[Indenturedebtor]

57. LOL or to invade a country

Very funny :rofl:

I love seeing these rally pics. Living in AZ as I do I don't think he'll ever come here :( But it's nice to look at those pictures as they make me feel less alone.
