15k is still a pretty big crowd, but it looks like he lost his rock star status.

palin got 8000 people down here at FGCU.... back in 2008... packed the place. 

Ron paul is a republican - he gets crowds of 4000+ on a weekly basis.

What's mitt's excuse?   Repubs make their way out to see other candidates... ;)

Because mitt is not a rock star or club, he is a boring Corp type.   I don't want rock star right now, I want someone who is going to try to fix the mess, not run around 24 7 creating fires and fights all over like the slum dog POTUS obama.

3 months ago, you were saying the GOP NEEDS a rock star, remember?

Props for the transformation - I agree with you.

I just think it's weak for the romney campaign to mock obama "only" getting 15,000 people to come to an event. 

Reminds me of the kind of brash over-confidence that led some idiot to mock community organizers, about 5 minutes before they organized a GOTV landslide ;)

LOL at you changing the subject from Obama booking a 15,000 seat stadium and having to make the ushers move people so it didn't look empty to Mitt on the Republican primary campaign trail.

Your God-King is in serious trouble and the magic has worn off for all but the most die-hard Obama dicksuckers (like yourself).

Dismal Beginning To Obama's Never-Ending Campaign
Investor's Business Daily ^ | May 7, 2012
Posted on May 7, 2012 9:25:26 PM EDT by raptor22

Politics: The Preezy of the United Steezy, as Barack Obama lets Jimmy Fallon refer to him, opens his re-election bid to a partially-filled stadium and a letter from his rival asking this year's key question: Where are the jobs?

There were no faux Greek columns when the president with the composite girlfriend and taste for canine filets officially began his 57-state campaign Saturday at Ohio State University's 18,300-seat Schottenstein Center that was only partially filled with those wearing faded "hope and change" T-shirts hoping to get their student loans paid off.

According to recent stats, only half of OSU graduates can expect to find jobs and like the rest of their brethren will take up residence in their parents' basements between occupy-whatever rallies. The one they were once again waiting for drew some 14,000 people to the arena. Before he spoke, the OSU newspaper, the Lantern, tweeted that ushers were asking people at the rally to move "in order for seats to look full for TV."

The glass looked less half-empty later at President Obama's next stop at a rally at the Siegel Center at the University of Virginia in another 2012 battleground state. It seats a more manageable crowd of 8,000. But the message was the same.

"If people ask you what the campaign is all about, hope. It's still about change," he told his Virginia audience after nearly four years of work on his golf game. The campaign is about waiting for nothing while an "economy built to last" on electric cars and windmills finally implodes under the weight of his own arrogance.

he could have spoken to 9,000 and left 5k in the parking lot.

but he pulled 14,000 into a facility that held more.  And people are bitching.

Sorry, but until the messiah known as romney can get HALF that many to show up for him, i woudn't laugh.  Hell, Romney claimed detroit as his HOMETOWN and had what, a few hundred people show up?

I bet obama could get a lot more than 400 in his hometown ;)

Chicago or kenya or honolulu, whatever.

palin packed the place too.  She didn't hand out any goodies. 

and if you're saying only dems want 'free shit' i have to laugh.  ALL PEOPLE want free shit.  Even those who say they don't. 

You can say it - ron paul and obama and palin energized voters, and romney does not.  you're not a kneepadder for saying it - you're just being honest.

In the privacy of the polling place, most sane people will vote for Romney, you know it, I know it, and only the delusional idiots are. Kidding themselves that Thugbama is a shoe in.

2008 - Rockstar obama beats out Mccain, being attacked by applesauce.
2004 - Bush beats out the windsurfing d-bag kerry.
2000 - Funny likable Bush2 beats out stiff and awkward Gore.
1996 - slut clinton beats out statesman Dole.
1992 - sax clinton beats out brilliant man who spent his life serving america, Bush1.
1988 - they were both douchy.
1984 - movie star grandpa beats goober mondale
1980 - movie star beats limpdick.

I can go back further, but is there a point?  JFK beat Nixon dude lol.  Seems to me that the cool guy beats douchey guy in prez elections in modern history.

This really is bad news for an incumbent six months before a general election, and just right after a nasty primary for the challenger. Was John Kerry leading Bush by 10 points among independents at this time in 2004? That would really surprise me.

There is really no reason whatsoever to listen to him anymore.  What does he ever say of consequence?  Everything is tax , spend, class warfare, cliche, me me me me, i i i i ii , etc
