ROSWELL, N.M. (AP) — Joe the Plumber, meet Ed the Dairyman.
Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin spoke to a crowd of about 10,000 supporters Sunday in Roswell, not only making a reference to Joe the Plumber, but alluding several times to "Ed the Dairyman" after seeing someone in the crowd holding a sign identifying himself that way.
Obama campaign officials estimated the rally drew about 2,500 people. Many waited two hours to see Biden, and several held Obama signs authorized by the campaign; other signs weren't allowed.
Palin continues to draw huge crowds wherever she goes. You can knock about 40% off that figure if it's coming from the Obama campaign.
Let's compare the crowds when it was just Obama and Mccain.........
Obama still pulls in bigger crowds than Palin does by a long shot though, even though that fact is irrelevant. What matters will be who motivates those crowds to go vote on election day.
It's not always about size! Biden is locking up voters in a state that a year ago McCain never planned on visiting or spending money in. Palin is flailing around in states that McCain thought he'd never have to visit or spend money in.
I'm not sure there's a bulding in Roswell with the capacity to hold 2500 people.
I'll take Ed The Dairyman (hereafter ETD), who is probably a real person, over JTP any day. And I'll darn sure take anyone at any Biden rally over the moron who shows up at McCain rallies with the stuffed monkey with the Obama sign on its head. How proud McCain must be of that guy.
Speaking of which, that idiot looks an awful lot like the old Republican Senator from one of the southern states that (allegedly) died a few years ago. Has anyone looked in the coffin?
Didn't we just have a post about the size of crowds last night? Crazy coincidence.
Nobody's counting how large or small the crowds are in order to make a decision on which way to vote, I can assure you. At least nobody with a thought in his or her head. I wouldn't lose too much sleep over this...either way.

Of course people will show up when brains, combined with good looks and experience shows up....Biden is old Washington....even longer than McCain so the whole hope and change thing of Obama went down the drain when he chose Biden!!!!

Side show freaks always draw a crown, but this in no way has any bearing on the fact that this particular side show freak just isn't ready for the job as #2, and certainly not as president.
If we take the average IQ's to the people that go to Palin's rallies, to the one's who go to Biden's, I am sure Biden would win by atleast 50 points over the average IQ of Palin's crowd.
