7000 at McCain rally in NC today
McCain appeared at a rally right outside of Charlotte today and only could bring in 7000. Compare that to the 25,000-30,000 that Obama had at his last rally here.

8. Listen

Only pro-American North Carolinians were allowed in, or so the McClown camp is maintaining.

9. since they've been repeatedly busted for overstating their crowds
and basing their numbers on the number of tickets they GAVE away, not actually used, I have to wonder if 7 k is accurate.

10. However, Obama got 100k+ in a traditionally
red state. While McCain got his 7k in a traditionally red state. Makes you think, eh?

11. Big deal. Charlotte's minor league hockey team draws that many people on the weekends, too.
Think about it. Hockey. Charlotte. Something about McCain is starting to smell...

16. Maybe Gramps should go to a more pro-America part of NC
He might get more of a crowd.

18. It would seem the anti America Obama voters outnumber the
alleged pro America mclame voters by quite a hefty margin.
