Obama drew the largest crowd at a U.S. rally to date, topping the massive crowd last week in St. Louis, at a rally in Denver over the weekend:
“‘Goodness gracious,' Obama said as peered at the human mass in Civic Center Park.”
According to KJCT: “Not since Pope John Paul II filled the park in 1993 have so many people turned out for an event in Denver's Civic Center Park. Later, about 45,000 people filled a lawn known as ‘The Oval' at Colorado State University to hear Obama speak. Thousands more stood on the outskirts.”
Obama is set to give a “closing argument” today in Canton, Ohio:
“In his speech, Senator Obama will tell voters that after twenty-one months and three debates, Senator McCain still has not been able to tell the American people a single major thing he'd do differently from George Bush when it comes to the economy. Obama will ask Americans to help him change this country, and say that in just one week, they can choose an economy that rewards work and creates new jobs and fuels prosperity from the bottom-up, they can choose to invest in health care for our families and education for our kids and renewable energy for our future, and they can choose hope over fear, unity over division and the promise of change over the power of the status quo.”
