The Romney campaign said it took in RSVPs from 14,000 to 15,000 people to the event, though it did not know how many actually came. Apopka Chief Administrative Officer Richard Anderson said earlier the amphitheater had a capacity of about 10,000. The place was overflowing, and most of the last few thousand people, at least, who arrived had to fight through crawling traffic. Many people abandoned their cars along the roads' grassy shoulders and walked a mile or more to get to the park.
But these people were happy to be there together, and having watched Romney's debate performance last week, they were feeling like winners. They thundered a welcome when Romney and his wife, Ann, took stage, then cheered and roared repeatedly through his 23-minute speech.
They and Romney caught a major break when vicious evening thunderstorms rolled over menacingly but passed Apopka by, leaving just a few sprinkled drops.
Romney began by describing the debate as a clear expression of his and Obama's visions for America. But he also portrayed the debate as an opportunity for him to ask questions of Obama that others could or would not on topics ranging from why the health-care law was a bigger priority than jobs and why he was canceling drilling permits on federal lands.
Among new details, Romney promised to double the number of drilling permits approved on federal lands, to open Alaska to more oil exploration and to "build that pipeline from Canada if I have to do it myself."

Those clouds look like a painting
15,000 on a Saturday night. Impressive!
Nice shots also.
So you think Sarah would be getting much bigger crowds than Mitt. And yet she choose not to run. How can that be anything but a damning indictment against her? Do you want to go there? Is that what you want?
For the record, I love Sarah.
lol
thank you
Not having Sarah involved is Mitts only mistake so far as I can see....I wonder if he is saving her for something...
And I would add: “...someone who doesn’t hate America...”
Palin was a novelty at the time. She has since become a conservative icon, but nobody knew much about her and all of a sudden she was a rock star. Now that the novelty has worn off, she may still be liked and respected, but I’d wager she wouldn’t draw near the crowds.
Try her “Villages” speech...very large crowd.
Reckon how NASA folks will vote?
My God, there’s something almost biblical about that picture. Loaves and fishes.
You are full of shiz. Palin drew 10,000 or more at almost every rally.

If she was the nominee the crowds would be off the chart so stop trying to build up that flip-flopping liar.
