Awesome! Really cool to have eyes on the ground!
Since the streaming link is an ABC affiliate I imagine we will shortly be informed the crowd numbers in the dozens.
I’ll guess 1500 based on the size of the gym. I don’t think anyone else would fit in here.
Tuning in right now! Thanks TomGuy!
That place is packed to the rafters! Awesome turnout! Compare and contrast to Obama/Biden events.
Gov. McDonnell just took the stage.
Gov. McDonnell sounded a bit tired. Ryan will fire up the crowd!
Cong. Ryan just took the stage.
Over 200 people watching live stream...according to CBS 6.
I believe he has done 12 events in the last two days. He will rest on the Sabbath.
He’s going over the five points.
These guys all have to be wiped out. They’re making so many events with such great turn outs.
You know how Sarah Palin was the proxy president? Can Ryan be the proxy President this time? :)
Or,I should say, she was running as the proxy President.
Last edit. Sarah Palin was running FOR proxy President.
OK, time for my nap.
Tried both streams, but had problems with buffering. The CBS one I ended up losing the stream. At least got hear Rep. Ryan for a bit.
VA Ping!
If you want on/off the VA Ping List, please freepmail me. Thanks!
The words “Hope and Change” mean one thing to obozo. The words, hope and change mean something entirely different to you and I. And how those words come full circle to bite obozo in the azz...what goes around, comes around.
Rescue and Recovery...thank God, and may it be so.
Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, who also spoke at the event, reported the crowd at 4000+. Our Office Manager arrived at 10:00 AM EDT (advertised 9:00 doors open and 11:00 event begins) and the gym was already closed. She was directed to the packed auditorium that had a live feed from the gym. I haven't been able to verify the numbers.
BTW, my iPad battery died at the beginning of Congressman Ryan's remarks. So I couldn't report from the floor...
Here in the Chicago area, all we see is obozo’s face and hear his mouth flap when he comes to town for a photo shoot and some money and adoration from the slobbering massess..that is, the Link Card crowd who for generations have been making a living off of the Link Card system, and the illegal aliens (Chicago's a BiG sanctuary city). I can see someone fleeing a country because of oppression, but when you have a obozo who is breaking our country's laws by allowing open borders and amnesty to anyone...for the vote..and you then have these illegals who say “what the heck”, let's go for it, you have a lawless society. I have no sympathy for this type of alien...their sheer numbers have made a depressing mess of the city's resources. The once lovely neighborhoods are seedy and run-down. The standard of living is at a all time low...and the taxpaying citizens who pay the bills have had to leave these onece lovely neighborhoods for safer, cleaner housing, but, of course, you can't sell your house beforehand, and so the neighborhoods are nothing more than boarded up homes, and people living on top of one another. And then the Communist Party opens up a “Unity Center” in the middle of a southside neighborhood, a neighborhood known for producing the last four mayors of Chicago..a real democrat/rat neighborhood. This commie center plays host to assorted socialist/communists/marxists/revolutionaries and gives out free food, free anything and everything to the illegals to garner their membership. These neighborhoods once made up of various ethnic groups, Italian, Lithuanian, Polish, Croatian, Irish, are now void of same, and instead are also occupied by the “anarchist, revolutionary, artist/art gallery types, who've converted old buildings into art galleries, buildings that once housed stores, businesses that employed the new immigrants who arrived here from the 1900s to the 1960s. oboma recently rented one of these building for his latest visit/rally in Chicago. And the neighborhood bars now have leftists/revolutionaries who congregate and discuss their leftist politics. Don't get me started on the black crime rampage (there is NO white crime rampage..WE are the targets). They feel entitled and with oboma as their president, they are running rampant, shooting, killing, thugging in mobs, while the corrupt, on the payroll reverends, with their store front churches, look the other way, chastise no one and launder money for the street gangs. The aldermen are the very same. And you and I know who rahm emanuel, the mayor of Chicago is all about. A recipe for chaos, destruction, lawlessness. And the cops, being short-handed, and rahm ignoring their pleas, are at wits end and the stress is showing big time in their voices on the police calls I listen to daily. It's like listening to play by play of the cockroaches outnumbering the number of Raid cans...the cops and dispatchers can't keep up with the calls, the backlogs, denials for accrued time off, or even breaks on their shifts, ‘cause “there's a backlog, we have no more cars and we need you now” from the dispatcher to the cop. My city is dying and I can't go back to the old neighborhoods I once knew..I don't want to wind up shot or dead if I did venture a trip down memory lane by going back, because of the gangs and shootings.
oboma MUST be defeated. Socialism/communism must be stamped out in this country. Thanks for hearing me out...frustration is high in this part of the country, and I know in many other places. See you at the polls!
