It had to pain the Administration Press to put this story out.

I was surprised to see the AP admit to Romney drawing such crowds, until I read the piece. Sure, they admit to a few numbers, but they quickly show that Zero is still outdrawing Romney (30,000 and 15,000 compared to 12,000 and 9500).

Methinks AP was really saying "Yeah, Mitt is drawing a few more people, but our guy is still out-drawing him!!"

There is a difference between getting thousands of college students who have all kinds of time on their hands and getting thousands of hardworking adults.

I think they always “overestimate” Hussein’s crowds.

The your dad is big but my dad is bigger syndrome. We have a Republican campaign headquarters in suburbs of Houston. Lots and lots of Romney/Ryan yard signs going out the door in the last two days. Also Ted Cruz yard signs but none for anyone else. Preponderance of people getting signs this week is Hispanic and several RLDS church members. We have been open since mid-September and in spite of being located next door to a Black Christian church, have had only one Black person stop thus far. He wants BO to be relected because BO is going to get him a job. He doesn’t have one now because he just got out of prison.

Many of the RLDS ladies are Preppers and most said they had at least six months of food and water in their stash, just in case Romney is not successful.

Interest is picking up in our part of Texas.

Yep.......Romney/Ryan crowds surging!!! After last night’s VP debate, today in Virginia & Ohio, Romney/Ryan turned out over 30,000 wildly cheering folks and supporters. By contrast, Joe Biden doing a supposed victory lap celebration turned a massive crowd of 2000 college students, hippies, union thugs and has beens in wisconsin this evening!!! What a guy that Joe Biden is!!!! So....now who won that debate last night!!! The people, the ones that count, have spoken!!!

Mitt is a bit on the geeky side which makes it hard for him to look like he cares to the “down and outers.” Barack’s supposed compassion is all rob-peter-to-pay-paul, and when peter is the one who traditionally offers most of the jobs, that is a recipe for everyone’s employment disaster, not just down and outers’.

I had to look twice at that byline. Some subversive must have snuck it in when the bosses weren’t looking.

Evidently, The Won mostly appears before college crowds. Still guaranteed to produce cheers and squeals in profusion...but no fainting spells anymore.

Adult audiences seem sparse...and subdued. Not good for The Won's ego

Hopefully, the MSM pimps agenda to turn off conservative voters will not work.
