Gannett owned website. Headline and link only. Will look for another postable source. The article says the fire chief estimates the crowd today at Palin's rally at 70,000.

The Villages is full of retired military. Very big McCain area. My parents live there.

I would like to get a crowd of 70,000 is some place like East Lansing, Mi; or Pittsburgh, Pa; or Duluth, Mn.

This breaks the previous FL record in Jacksonville 10/2004 when I saw Bush at Alltel Stadium.

FReepers who were there posted through their web-enabled phones that many people couldn't make it into the complex and were happy enough to listen to the speech from behind the fences.

A FR poster who was there said there were atleast twice as many outside as there were inside! Guess they were right!

“...BHO drew 200,000 in Berlin.”

Actually, the free beer and bratwursts attracted the 100,000. It just so happened Obama coincidentally gave a speech at the same time.

Outstanding!
This will really embolden the voter fraud groups, though. We all still need to be watchful.
They can’t win if they don’t cheat.
They can’t cheat if it’s not even close.

That's larger than President Bush's largest rally in Florida in 2004.
