The Political Messiah????

Here is a picture of Obama’s rally today in Missouri which drew over 100,000 people:

Barack Obama attracted 100,000 people at a Saturday rally here, his biggest crowd ever at a U.S. event.The crowd assembled under the Gateway Arch on a sunny Saturday afternoon to hear Obama speak about taxes and slam the Republicans on economic issues.Lt. Samuel Dotson of the St. Louis Police Department confirmed the number of attendees piled into the grassy lawn by the Mississippi River.

To be sure, big crowds don’t always signal a big turnout on Election Day. But Obama’s ability to draw his largest audience yet in a typically red state that just weeks ago looked out of reach, could signal a changing electoral map. For months Missouri polls put Obama as much as ten percentage points behind Republican John McCain. It was widely believed that McCain’s pick of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate would have won over the state’s conservatives and boosted his chances there. So far, that hasn’t happened.

A Rasmussen poll released on Friday shows Obama leading in Missouri 52% to 46% for McCain.

I know a lot of people are mad seeing this. SMH. Don’t get too confident history will be made. Make plans to ride for your boy Barack on November 4.

  • Razzell Dazzell

    Yes we can! Yes we will! Change we all can believe in! This is what change looks like! I am so inspired. Please people, GO VOTE; it’s the only way we make a difference. Everyone is banking on the young voters not following through and showing up to the polls, we have news for them and the news will read PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA on January 5 if we actually do VOTE. This may be a once and a lifetime opportunity. Your opportunity to make history. Tell your family and friends to GO VOTE! Be patient in the lines, and if you can, vote early. Don’t trust provisional ballots; just exercise your right to VOTE. No matter what John McCain and his surrogates try to throw at Obama, he has handled it with grace, dignity, integrity, professional, and above all like a real President. NO WAY, NO HOW, NO McCain!

  • NeevaTheDiva

    yea i was there today and it was truly an momentous occassion. there is really something mesmerizing about Obama. I’ve never gone to political rally and I’ve never felt energized and inspired for real lol … listening to Obama speak his words rang strong across that park, and he sounded like a man speaking from the courage of his convictions and genuine.

    We all need to say a prayer for Obama and the nation. Seeing that crowd will work up the lunatic fringe and I fear his safety will be more at risk. I also think that hate crimes against black folks may intensify.

    Some folks are looking for someone to blame for the collapsing economy and their corresponding ability to live their way of life. The McCain team are using that anger to fan the flames of racism to win. Its not like racism wasn’t there already in the minds and hearts of some people, but I think the tone of the presidential campaign has created a convenient diversion for the real causes of our current problems. This tactic is older than the United States of America: the slave trade took jobs away from whites and they got angry at the slaves instead of the masters.

    With all of the above on him, Obama will have to fix our economy, combat global terrorism, and bring our troops home.

    We need to pray as often as we can for his and his family’s safe passage as well as our collective safety in this time of crazy.

    My husband and I just voted(he has a vote I don’t but I still count it as mine). For all those who have lost hope,my husband is a white guy born and raised in the South and his family is very conservative and republican. He defends Obama more than anyone I know! YES WE CAN!!!!

  • kc

    Too damn dangerous! Anyone could take a potshot at Obama during one of these huge outdoor rallies.

    Especially after weeks of Palin/McCain inciting rage against him.

    Could easily be the October ‘surprise.’

    LOL @ Oshie

    New record fundraising numbers today from the Obama campaign, courtesy of the AP:

    WASHINGTON – Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama raised more than $150 million in September, a stunning and unprecedented eruption of political giving that has given him a wide spending advantage over rival John McCain.The campaign released the figure on Sunday, one day before it must file a detailed report of its monthly finances with the Federal Election Commission. Obama’s money is fueling a vast campaign operation in an expanding field of competitive states. It also has underwritten a wave of both national and targeted video advertising unseen before in a presidential contest.Campaign manager David Plouffe, in an e-mail to supporters Sunday morning, said the campaign had added 632,000 new donors in September, for a total of 3.1 million contributors to the campaign. He said the average donation was $86.

    COLIN POWELL HAS ENDORSED OBAMA

  • STOP TRIPPING!

    he raised $150 million dollars. if obama was white, he would win in a landslide but it will be close.

  • sashaKayente

    No. We all know he’s not the Messiah. But…just like Neo; he is the one!!

  • ashley

    this is the most racist free country in the world…

  • ashley

    if he were white he would have already won.

    palin scored an 800 something on her sat and mccain is too dam old for the stress of presidency, yet theres still debate SMH it so very sad. Christian white folk dont even comprehend how racist they truly are. Jesus lives and his will-will be done.

  • Lin

    Thank you Obama! for being an outstanding person! LOVELY you and your wife are. IT’S JUST sooo wonderful to see respected leadership and integrity in a politician!

  • Lin

    white folks are just trying to scare the world with christianity, WHY DO they limit God and say He is not that magnificent, He can’t create but one color of race. THEY ARE SOOOO IGNORANT! But God’s punishment in their life is sooooo far more worst than we could ever blog about. Thou shalt not fear! WHITE PEOPLE you are not listening to God! BUT THESE ARE THE last days, peoples ignorance will start to show, only thing is, WE are not your black people from the past, A new generation baby, and slavery and bondage AIN’T COMING BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • as seen on t.v.(my gravie went to Harvard with our next president)

    Fake News and McSame are trying to down play the impact that Colin Powell’s endorsement of Barack will have on this election….They know that it’s a big deal and they know that Colin Powell carries a lot of weight with Vets….Yes We Can!!!!!

    Barack the Vote Nov.4th!!!!

  • Shay

    They were making a big deal that Sarah Palin “sold out” 17,000 free tickets in two days here in Indianapolis. It was strange that they said that when every Obama event here in Indy has been very last minute. Sometimes announced hours before the event and they’ve always run out of seats and had to turn people away.

    I agree 100% with you. Palin and McCain are using tactics to ignite feelings of hate and racism which could cause Obama and his family harm. Her comments the other day about the more “patriotic” Americans were found in the small towns was proof of that. Patriotic was clearly a code word for racist, and the average white person that falls into this category should embrace Obama because he is truly working for the average American. I really hope he makes it to the White House and does a good job, because I believe major barriers would be broken down.

    …..Far from being a GOP led conspiracy to disenfranchise voters, what we are seeing is an effort to flout the law and allow voting without proper identification or checks and balances to assure that people aren’t voting multiple times. But whatever. You guys are so sure that Bush stole the election in 2000 that it just seems like it’s time for a little payback.——–Real Conservative*********************************

    The point you are making doesn’t make that much sense considering that fraudulent applications turned in from Acorn were based more on individual worker fraud as opposed to that of the organization. They were paid on the number of registrations they got, so they got them however they could–which doesn’t make it right. In actuality this does not justify throwing out 200,000 applications submitted by Acorn. Do you believe Micky Mouse or Captain America will actually show up to cast a vote? I don’t. And these were some of the registrations they had. Other discrepancies included name initials, one letter in the name different than on the application (i.e. Bobbie/Bobbi), voters change of address. The GOP was clearly trying to block a large number of Democrats from voting. I agree voters should have identification but other than that it doesn’t matter how many applications are fraudulent; what matters is the actual person coming out to cast the vote.

    Great things are ahead for our country, and our world. Barack Obama, and others, will lead us there.

    Some idiots and fools will try to stop us, but they will fail. In the end, the always do.

  • Kelz

    McCain is supposed to be in St. Charles today and it’s said that he will only have a 5,000 turn-out. I think that he knows if he does his speech under the Arch he would get no where as many people as Obama to come out and see him.

  • why?

    YEEEEEP!!! I was there it was so packed but it really was amazing!

    St. Louis Stand up!!!!! :)

  • darius

    NOBama this man is for abortion and hangs with terrorists. Read about him people.Lets not think cause hes a brother he is good. READ and be Educated!

  • darius

    You people are fooled- read for what each canadate stands for- dont look at their skin color.

    Most of you dont support gay marriage and abortions and you support a person who does? What about his ties with terrorists?> You think he will support this country and protect it? he has been friends with Ayers for over 20 yrs.

  • LMAO !

    ————————————————

    By the time Obama befriended this person, Ayers had turned his life around.

    Obama was 8 yrs old when Ayers was espousing such views.

    As for him supporting this country,”What choice does he have?”. He will be the President of the United States were he to win the election, not “DICTATOR” of the United States. How long do you think he would last as President trying to pull that one off?.

    He’ll only be in a position to do so much and nothing he does will go without scrutiny.

  • LMAO !

    And gay people wanting to get married is a moral issue not a political one. As for abortion, does your non-support also insist that a woman who is raped by a stranger or anyone for that matter keep the child, were she to find herself pregnant due to being raped?.

  • liyah

    shoo rite now mccain shuld be sweatin bullets cuz aint no way he bout to win dis year!!! OBAMA IS DA ONE!!!!
