The only person I read using that number was Abdul and I don't even recall seeing him at the event. I've been to concerts there and there were as least as many people there as a sold out concert. Sorry to crush the Obama people with the news that Palin drew more people than Obama.Gary R.

I went to it. Because I knew there would be over reporting again.<BR/><BR/>Not all the seats were filled up, as evidenced by pictures. The lawn was'nt fiulled up like either Buffet or DMB, and I have seen them both alot at Verizon.<BR/><BR/>The capacity at Verizon is 24k, and it was not full bu any means.<BR/><BR/>Even the Fire Marshall said it was about 15k.

I was there and it was a great crowd but bigger then Buffet? Was this guy at Buffett? Was he drinking yesterday and had triple vision? Great crowd yesterday but well under a Buffet Crowd I can assure you.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07243079362504708235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-18173584821859738582008-10-18T08:41:00.000-05:002008-10-18T08:41:00.000-05:00I wouldn't be surprised if DID happen, and would be equally unsurprised if it was an Obama sympathizer trying to create a controversy. I've seen the Palin T-shirts. Nothing would surprise me at this point.Downtown Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239811599722585898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-84049260161399278342008-10-18T08:20:00.000-05:002008-10-18T08:20:00.000-05:00Well, first of all Chris, sitting where I sat with the media at yesterday's rally, it was difficult most of the time to hear what any given person in the audience was yelling. You choose to give Obama a pass for spending over 20 years as a member of a church which essentially teaches its members that white people are bad, that America is the problem and which symphathized with the 9/11 atackers. In his own book, Obama uses the term "greedy white people" to make a point. Frankly, we've had it with the double standards. Every word uttered by a Republican is twisted and turned to mean "racist" or "bigot". You also conveniently ignore the violent attacks of Obama supporters against McCain supporters like the woman who had a McCain sign snatched from her hand in New York and was beaten in the face with it by an Obama supporter. Your candidate told his supporters to get in our faces. Take a look in the mirror, Chris, before speaking the next time on this subject.Gary R.

All they can do is interview people they knew who were there and report whether THEY heard it. But I would submit the following for your consideration. We generally DON'T like terrorists in this country, McCain and conservative commentators are basically calling Obama a terrorist outright by association( William Ayers and having the name "Hussein") and there's already been one plot (as ridiculously flawed as it was) to kill Obama. I noticed the Secret Service didn't debunk all the people at McCain rallies calling Obama an "Arab." If you think they're saying it as a compliment, you've just lost ALL of your credibility. This is hateful speech uttered by people who want to divide and conquer this country. This is the kind of tactic Lee Atwater apologized for on his death bed. I wonder how many others will regret themselves when they're about to meet their makers.POPAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00558836541249077077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-57905892881001163432008-10-18T07:46:00.000-05:002008-10-18T07:46:00.000-05:00Well, you induced me to read an Amos column. I found this interesting:<BR/><BR/>"If ACORN filled out registration forms for “Mickey Mouse,” “Bart Simpson,” “L. E. Fant” and other bogus names, <B>those “people” can’t vote unless they procude an Indiana state photo ID, driver’s license or an American passport, which requires an orginal <I>birth certificate</I></B>."<BR/><BR/>So you have to produce one to vote, but not to be <I>the one</I> (pardon the phrase) for which they are voting. What a curious double-standard.Downtown Indyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06239811599722585898noreply@blogger.com
