Romney/Ryan Red Rocks Rally Tonight

Typical political even handedness: Romney/Ryan paid full rent for Red Rocks. The Obama campaign got thiers rent free.

Or, of all those seniors his vouchers are supposed to cover in the future, more than half will be denied coverage.....the possibilities are endless. Really, can you trust someone who hands out 25000 tickets to an event knowing full well that the venue won't even accommodate half that many?

When people get tickets for free, they are far less likely to show up than if they were paying for them.

Maybe so, but handing out more than double what you can accommodate? Looks more like he wanted to guarantee that he had a full house, even if he risked pissing off some of those supporters. Perception odds everything for the TV cameras.

Obviously Obama is better at managing money than Romney. Obama got the same results for lower cost...that's the kind of government we need.

The event at Red Rocks was well managed. The people that didn't make it in seemed to be having their own party in the restaurants in Morrison. I saw no one complain.
The funny things about conservatives is that they take some responsibility for not getting there on time to get a seat.
Folks I talked to were disappointed to have missed him speak but excited that so many wanted to hear him speak.
Why no pics of the rally for Obama. I would love to see the visual proof of the masses. I suspect the media is being careful about their statements in fear that they might have to back them up. Show me those 1000's of folks.
It was shoulder to shoulder standing room only at Red Rocks.
I have seen some big names there and been to plenty of sold out shows. I have never seen anything like that.
I have heard the statement of more on one station by one guy.....that's it.

Now that shit is HILARIOUS.

How many showed up for Big O today?
I heard it was far less than the number of people stuck in traffic
waiting for the motorcade to go by on I-70.
any witnesses to the event care to weigh in?

According to the Denver Post: "Obama said to a crowd of about 16,000."

Thanks soulshiner. 16,000 is a good turnout.
I had to work and couldn't keep up with the coverage.

I read that article 3 times and could not find where it said anywhere how many people were there.
I am a little under the weather today so if someone finds it....could you post it.

"We've gone through three debates, months of campaigning, way too many TV ads," Obama said to a crowd of about 16,000. Official count according to who?
