8000 people! 8000 people!

Apparently that's how many msnbc is estimating is in the crowd in a town in Wisconsin to see McCain/Palin..

Can I get a dolla for everytime this number is trumpeted as remarkable by the media?.. (They are doing a "McCain-wait" on site)

Haven't ALL of Obama's crowds been bigger than this?

1. Who cares...it's like McAss and his traveling circus at this point.

It's a spectacle.

2. It just pisses me off that they keep crowd shots for ages on

mCain "crowds" (actually I think this is his very first one) and then never even give ONE WIDE SHOT of the crowds that show up where the Dem ticket is campaigning. Has Obama had any crowd UNDER 8,000?

4. Not that I recall....

unless it was a town hall kind of thing...

3. Did they also say that's the size of the town she was mayor of?

5. Palin's the real draw in this campaign, and that's what the media wants

a focus between Palin and Obama since that provides them with higher ratings. I think covering McCain bores them.
