The presumptive GOP presidential and vice presidential nominees Mitt Romney and Rep. Paul Ryan are attracting thousands of supporters to their campaign rallies since Mr. Romney named Mr Ryan to the bottom of the ticket.
However, President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are not drawing the crowds they once could. The New York Times is reporting that the Obama campaign is saying that it is intentionally limiting crowd size at their events because of security and cost:
“We have plenty of time for big rallies,” a campaign spokeswoman, Jen Psaki, said between the rallies on Thursday. “Our focus right now is on exciting our supporters and winning over undecided voters and the smaller and medium-size events are the best venue to accomplish that because the president can closely engage with the crowd.
”Big rallies are expensive, especially given the logistical and security challenges for a president as opposed to a mere United States senator. And Obama campaign operatives, both at the Chicago headquarters and in swing states where Mr. Obama recently has stumped, say the campaign intentionally limits crowds by restricting tickets. The reason is to allow the president to better connect with supporters, aides say.

Why yes....the frugal, notoriously penney-pinching Obama & Co. are so concerned about campaign costs (”...by God, we’ll raise a billion f**king dollars!!!!!!!”) that they will deliberately limit the number of attendees at their campaign stops. Such.....altruism; such....shepherding of resources.
Admirable.
Lying, miserable pieces of barnyard excrement. They can’t DRAW a crowd anywhere. The closest thing to a crowd is union thugs paid to be there.....yawning as Obama drones on and kisses a mirror.
Remember that this is the same “president” who couldn’t speak to a third-grade class without a teleprompter.
This is really just too much!
When they lose the election, they’ll say “We meant to do that”.
I can hardly wait for the protesters in Charlotte at the convention. You can only squeeze so many nutcases in one spot and something has to give. They sure picked a set of ‘em to ‘lead’ ‘em.
You know, they might actually find a way to spin their loss that way. I can hear them now..."We lost on purpose so that we can run again in 2016 to clean up Romney's mess, just like we got done cleaning up Bush's mess...yeah, that's the ticket!"
Yeah? Well we’re intentionally going to limit you to one term.
I can’t wait for November 7 (?): “We lost on purpose,” says the White House.
Debbie Marblemouth Schultz will rattle on about how this was all a clear message from the populace in support of obama...
I think there’s a real buy opportunity here on pharmacueticals that block out cognitive dissonance.
I want the Republic back.
Democrats are More Comfortable with Lies!
Let me amend that for increased accuracy, Progressives are more comfortable with lies. Within the Republican party there are those who we call rinos. Rinos are Republicans in name only, they are infiltrators from the radical left.
The liberal/progressive world is one where to lie, cheat, steal even murder to further their agenda is laudable behavior.
Absolutely hilarious.
Maybe its a ‘green’ thing. Perhaps they have decided that busing them in from other states is causing Global Warming.
This chickensh** moron has an excuse for EVERYTHING.
Dear God, I can’t wait to see him completely meltdown and cry like a baby.

SEIU bus caravans are expensive.
This is a classic, I haven’t heard it before except from Commie gensecs behind the Iron Curtain. Which, of course, is fitting.
and just how are they doing it??? please...
Democrap voters, being what they are will believe this crap. There's not a doubt in my mind.
Has anyone started a thread for the Holder’s pardon pool, between Nov 8 and Jan 19?
Good folks, Forget about the small turnout of Obama supporters at his campaign rallies. The Obama “thrill on my leg” magic is long gone. The real devastation is evident in the almost 100% absence of Democrat politicians running for office or re-election at all Obama campaign activities.
Obama is radioactive and toxic together. No sane Democrat wants be near him for an endorsement or otherwise!!! Obama is going to lose big time, come November, and....he is going to take many Democrats down with him.
They know they’re done
