this is like comparing apples to oranges.

The picture of Barack was taken during the DNC Convention in Denver,
and this was actually his acceptance speech, which always draws the
most attendees, to celebrate his nomination.

The picture of Romney is dealing with a state primary, and is not
a convention.

A better picture for Obama would have been a picture during a primary
stop where the facility was packed. I know there are plenty of those
pictures around.

Granted, Obama is a rock star where Romney has to buy his friends!
Your point is well made.
