COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Mitt Romney’s third rally of the day at a swing-state airplane hangar was his most raucous yet, as he fired up supporters by noting that their chance to change the country’s direction is just three days away.
Flanked by a massive sign reading “Real Change on Day One” and by teleprompters — a reminder that his closing argument is a departure from what he has been saying on the stump over the past few weeks — Romney told the hangar full of supporters that “there’s a better life out there for us.”
“It’s waiting for us,” the Republican presidential nominee said, as his wife, Ann, stood next to him. “Our destiny is in the hands of the American people — in your hands. Three more days. Three more days, and we can get to work rebuilding our country. Three more days, and our confidence becomes restored and our conviction is even stronger.”
At another point, Romney told the crowd, “All across America, people have watched as our campaign has gathered the strength of a movement.”

Colorado Springs is two and a half hours from me... its the GOP bastion of CO. Its painted in Deep Red.
He got a great reception, there I’m sure.
Just watched this rally and it was incredible. And I’m someone who came late to Romney in all this.
I’ve heard him mention the Challenger flag at other rallies, but this one being near Monument, Colorado, he invited the scoutmaster up who displayed the flag.
I have to say it was one of the more remarkable goosebump moments that I’ve seen in politics in quite a while.
Romney’s good some serious mojo going right now, and it couldn’t come at a better time for our nation.
I see a landslide a comin'
I see that Mitt is on the way
I see us taking back our country
I see the dawn of a brand new day.
Try? They're riding the wave to the shore!

Slow Joe turned out 900 in Arvada and a few thousand in his other CO appearance in Pueblo.
Let’s face it: if a Vice President Of The United States cannot get a decent crowd to show up on the weekend before the election, the guy at the top of the ticket is toast!
And this has been happening to the Obama Campaign all over the country. Close election, indeed.
I know. I was thinking the same thing...”Tries”???? Then I noticed the source: WaPo. LOL !!!
ROTFLMYobamaOFF
17,000 wow.
I know the polls are all over the place. And it’s because of the turnout models they have chosen.
But when you see that Gallup/Ras/Pew are all saying turnout will be 200/2010. And R winning Indy’s by double digits. And R doing great in early voting. And the difference in these campign rallies. I just cannot see how Obama can win this. In fact, I think R will will by 6 points and 310+ EVs.
You are right it is gonna be a TSUROMNEY!!!

More like over 25,000. That’s the OFA number.
TSUROMNEY! What a great image! I’d love to see huge signs with the famous Japanese woodcut of a huge wave and the word “TSUROMNEY” at the top of it at the Romney rallies for the next two days. It would be great REVENGE for the ROMNESIA remark 0bama used last week.
I'm praying for turnout to mirror rally participation.
Romney will win Colorado but with increasing Hispanic populations this state will be getting more Democrat and more difficult for a Republican presidential candidate. The dismaying thing is that even Asians buy into the racial grievance models, copying blacks and Hispanics. Young ones especially. My bet is the Asian vote goes at least 65% for Obama and more like 70%. So much for the model minority and model immigrants
