Not like the 100,000 people that came to see Obama in Missouri...lets see.. the GOP base was fired up in 2004 and the democrats werent fired up yet the democrats lost the election by a small margin in Ohio. The democrats are fired up BIG time this years so take a guess at what will happen
Obama has outspent McCain 5 to 1 in Missouri. I think it's amazing that Obama isn't way ahead in the polls under those circumstances. BUT HE'S NOT!
Thousands turn out to see Palin (http://www.columbiatribune.com/2008/Nov/20081102News056.asp - broken link)
The media is so disgusting - they keep trying to put forth the narrative that SHE is dragging the ticket down. I think not. SHE has fired up the base, big time. Last time that happened was in 2004.
Doesn't look like 18,000 to me, where did you find that number? I doubt there were even thousands as suggested in the link.
Hey, I'd do the same thing if I was in Missouri. Palin's much more fun to watch, and we won't see that much of her after tomorrow. I'd go see her while I could. Everyone can see as much as they want of Biden over the next 8 years.
Right. I'm sure they were mostly Obama supporters.
Obama's Missouri crowd of 100,000...I'd rather for the top of the ticket to create all the excitement as oppose to the bottom of the ticket. If the top of the ticket cant generate excitement, that really says something about him as a candidate and his potential to win an election.
Why would Obama be ahead, Missouri is traditionally a red state? The fact that Obama is close speaks volumes.....
Also, he was forcing McCain to spend money to defend redstates, and not to advertise in battlegrounds. The fact that Obama has shifted redstated to battle grounds was impressive.
It is pretty stupid for neo-cons to be bragging about this.

Clinton carried Missouri in '92 and '96. Missouri has a pretty good record of deciding who gets elected.
