My sis in Seattle says 18,000 are inside Obama rally & 3000 more outside
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 05:25 PM by Stephanie

There wasn't room for everyone. So Obama gave a speech to the crowd outside the arena before he went in. Amazing!



*edit - below is her cellphone photo of Obama speaking to the outdoor crowd.

8. I don't know... We should ask her at her next townhall.
Only the questions and guests are pre-selected, so there's no chance of getting an answer. Just as there's no chance of her taking ownership and apologizing for Iraq.

21. It would, if
Obama were going to really do something instead of selling himself like the latest video game.

Kids, its just Obama. A senator from Illinois who doesn't have a lot of experience at anything and whose policy and vision is pretty thin soup.

20. Creepy
Obama as a public official is not that spectacular. Methinks the young folks are getting brainwashed.
