It disturbed me a little that in Ohio when everyone kept cheering for over five minutes he finally said "thank you, you have lifted our spirits". Usually you say, "you lifted our spirits" when you are feeling kind of down. Maybe it was just a poor choice of words, but I hope they are optimistic about winning.

Anytime you hear 15,0000 people cheering for you its going to lift your spirit!

My thought (woman's intuition???!) was that that particular remark had something to do with the release of the OBL tape -- which must not have been something he wanted to hear. I think that he found such enthusiasm in the face of a threat most heartening.

Read the thread regarding the edited portion of the Osama tape having threats directly at the Bush family and others in the Cabinet.

Laura looked concern behind GWB in Columbus.

The SS looked especially active and attentive during that rally.

That's why the Pres had his "spirits lifted" by the crowd.
