The issue is Obama's record and the fact he cannot run on it. Biden is a convicted plagiarist and he blatantly lied in his debate with Ryan re Benghazi. Joe being Joe happens only because the msm refuses to cover those facts. Crowd size is what it is. Romney Crowd in Sidney, Ohio is “Obama Size” According to Jeff Zeleny of the New York Times Another great crowd in Sidney, Ohio today with an interesting observation: For the second night in a row in Ohio, Romney campaign draws very large crowd at rally. If you’re a Democrat wondering how big? Obama size. — Jeff Zeleny (@jeffzeleny) October 10, 2012 The above tweet from Jeff Zeleny is more important than the actual number because of the comparative nature of events and crowd sizes. Yesterday’s Romney crowd was 12,000 — a fantastic showing. But that was in Cuyahoga County, a densely populated region who saw 658k people vote in 2008. Today’s rally was in the more sparsely populated Shelby County that saw 23k people vote in 2008. Romney’s turnout tonight of 8,000 9000 (h/t Kevin in the comments) is 39% of the entire county … 39% of the ENTIRE County.
