I guess that is storage for the Obama crowd. Was the Obama campaign paying storage fees to Invesco field to "hold" these items? Some of these previous comments are too funny!

Surely if they were to be distrubted at various events at Invesco, they would have been put in actual boxes? They would have taken up less space in boxes, and would have been easier to move from storage location to storage location.

Now if those flags were suppose to be discarded, why would they be neatly wrapped up and bagged together? Unless you are an individual suffering from OCD, things that you will throw away does not look like that. A few weeks ago before Palin was chosen by McCain, we were told that the election was very close and they had all these poll numbers that support this idea. Now, I hear from those same people saying that McCain know that he was going to lose the election so he had to chose Palin to rally the base. The media is doing such a disservice to the American people. I am astonished that they are doing this again. They did this with the Iraq war and then years later some (not all) admit that they did not sufficiently question Bush and his manipulative staff members. I hope and pray that at the end of all this, we are not fooled because we will suffer the consequences again. We are suffering the consequences at the moment with foreclosures, high gas prices, and high employment rates. Think people, are we really going to put our selves through this again?
