Wow

The police estimated the crowd to be about 100,000 175,000. So exciting! I'm pretty sure Kerry (LOL) never attracted crowds like that. Also, Condirazzi Iron Photo-Opographer Jim Young, one of the few wire snappers to have a topic tag here at PSP, was there! He took this picture that makes Obama look fifty-feet-tall:

I'd prefer a giant Michelle Obama, but a crowd of 100,000 in St. Louis, damn! That's pretty good even for a guy only about six feet tall.

LOL, well, considering that you came to PSP for the Ursula and stayed for everything else, that goes without saying, Matty.

Obama can do chin ups on the friendship arch! He can stay calm and reasonable while McCain yaps like a demented schnauzer right next to him! He can draw a crowd of almost 200,000, even though he's a secret muslim, a terrorist, and doesn't have the experience to be president! Garsh! Maybe he can even win an election in this contard-infested country!

I was there yesterday in St. Louis, and it was amazing! He left me energized and inspired, unlike my last date....

You mean Obama doesn't have to go to Europe to draw huge crowds??

This crowd reminds me a lot of the crowds Sarah Palin draws on her tour of Podunk, USA, except for this crowd has more than 200 people and they all aren't pissed off and white.

My gosh, he looks like Big Tex welcoming people to the Texas State Fair in Dallas. Only Obama's better dressed.

It's like one giant steel rainbow is smiling on Obama.
