Here he can have the house packed with his volunteers and say nothing while his adoring throngs cheer on his great words of pseudo hope and change. Who cares that he is turning his back on the delegates that voted for him ( some of whom were threatented to be stripped of their credentials if they did not). Let me know when they announce the rock group that will open for him. That's who the young supporters really come out to see. Wake up voters. This man's EGO will be his downfall. But it will be up to the grownups in the party to clean up the mess created by the DNC and Obama campaign.

I may still do. This is more than historic, it is imperative. I'd rather stand on the outs of a stadium than the outs of reality like Repugs and Bitter Billary supporters. It's not about me, the Clintons or the size of the venue, it is about the future of America. Please peeps. I was not here for the last 2 elections or 911, so I am only learning hoe Americans were led by fear to vote Bush twice. It is not only in our domestic interest to prove that we are as not as dumb as the MSM and the repugs believe, but most certainly in our international interest to go Bo. Please prove to me and the world that we are not as gullible as the rest of the world thinks we are and as the trolls like us to believe. It's now or never, save for a Kevin Costner water World America. If I could secure a flight, despite the increasing fuel and airline cost, I would so be there. I may still do.

The reference to Obama's campaign for change should say campaign OF change since he changes his stance on at least one major issue every few days. This guy has one heck of an ego, his handlers should try to keep that in check. There is a typo in the article.

McCain in May of this year said he was against offshore drilling and now he is for it. I'm not saying that is a bad thing, but people need to realize that is how politics are played. Bush is the anti-flip-flopper and look at what a tremendous job he's done. It blows my mind that anyone would call Obama a flip-flopper when he is running against John McCain of all people.

AND so what if his last appearance was a rock concert? If it were McCain you right wing neos would be all over it giving props, but as it stands McCain is out of touch with mainstream America and would not have such a foresight to show up at such an event to send his message to thousands at a time. McCain is also allied with a president that hates America so who really cares what you GOP say anyway the speech I am so looking forward to however is Obama in his inaugural speech in January .
