I was there he had to bus in his "supporters" because he doesn't have enough real supporters in Prince William County! Too bad - Obama, but you are going to be part of the CHANGE in November - good luck finding another JOB!

Deborah,
Buses were coming from the PW Fairgrounds because of limited parking at the stadium.

He had to bus supporters in from Prince William County Fairground Parking because the venue lacked parking. 16000 people got tickets for the event and the county said only 6000 could be seated so 10,000 were turned away. If you're going to give propaganda try for bashing him for turning people away. At least that's a half truth which is more than you lead with.

Nice try but the stadium seats a whole lot more than 6000. 10,000 were not turned away - funny! I estimate that about 2000 showed up and some of the busses said DC on them. Good luck in November Mr. Obama - you might need to go abroad to find a new JOB though!

Yeah, just like they had to move the Democratic Convention in Tampa "because of the weather." (cough, cough). It was the weather all right. The climate change of Obama's hot air and false promises, and the weather vane shows that sane people are tired of listening to his lies.

I hope you are not voting for Mit Romney because some of the republicans have turned their back on him you dare not be part of the 47 percent because he say he have counted you out and some of you think the people are all african americans but you need to go back and research that.
