No only did Barack Obama fill up the Invesco Field on Thursday night, but it appears Americans everywhere were glued to their seats to watch the Senator’s address to the Democratic National Convention.
Over 38 million television viewers reportedly tuned in last night to watch Barack officially accept the party’s nomination.
In comparison, John Kerry’s speech in 2004 garnered 24.4 million viewers and George W. Bush’s was watched by 27.5 million.
And now we wait for the Republican Convention. Will they be able to rally up the same support? Stay tuned!

It was great to see us Democrats come together last night and reclaim the right of the American people to again have the American Dream! OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yea the right to the american dream was stolen.
certain folks get reeeaaaallly into their elected leaders and gov’t!
that says a lot.
The media is so in love with this freak of an empty suit that they will lie and deceive the people of the United States just to give him more credit than he deserves. Now, they are touting his mediocre speech as the most watch, more than Olympics and SuperBowl.
WTF. Go Bears!
I don’t really think it was all about Obama, It was the historical mark that people were into. I know that is why I watched, it was a part of history.
Yeah, I have to agree with post number 4 on that one and post number 3.
GO SOONERS
John McCain just like most elderly folks shit the bed!!! His whole campaign was about how it takes experience and wisdon. HA!!!! And he picks a 1 term governor from butt fuck Alaska??? Someone who has less experience and is younger???? ahahhahahahahahaahahah!!! He has lost soo much credibilty and this was a hale marry that was DROPPED!!!
media Bias and hw support will backfire LOL.
Palin has a bigger resume than bambi lol.
People watch to see Obama give one of the most moving and inspirational speeches in history. If you think otherwise, #4 and co., you’re dumbfucks. Obama and Biden will beat the shit out of that senile old fuck and the crooked no-named bitch he selected.

Why are so many Obama disciples like “marline” and “Jack Tripper” so hateful and intolerant toward other people just because they don’t share their same view of the world? Diversity of opinion should be celebrated and debated respectfully. Not shouted down with hateful insults. It’s unfortunate Obama inspires this kind of behavior in his followers.
Barack is a great orator and that is it. If you think that he WROTE those speeches, you are a dumbest fuck #10. Barack is an empty suit created by the advertising campaign genius Axelrod. The campaign slogan of HOPE and CHANGE has been done before (HOPE = Bill Clinton) and (CHANGE = Deval Patrick/Gov. Massachusetts). Deval Patrick, an Axelrod protege’, was elected as Governor of Massachusetts under the banner of CHANGE for Massachusetts. Sound Familiar. Barack Obama is a careful orchestration of political manuevering handled by Axelrod, Plouffe and others. Barack has no policy specifics or ideals. Outside of Teleprompter Speeches, Barack pauses a lot to gather his thoughts, which at many times pretty fucking regular. His speeches are written by 20/30 somethings from IVY League schools. You die-hard Barack Obamaniacs are fools; you have been bamboozled. He will lose this election to a woman, Sarah Palin. Unfortunately, Hillary Clinton was victimized by a lot of fucking sexism in the MSM.
I meant to say #9. Sorry #10. Marline is the dumbest fuck.
Barack will be surprised when he loses on November 4th. Wah! He thinks the POTUS is in the bag. What a fucking arrogant, full of himself fool. Obama and Biden married each other in their Gay Festive celebration at the Mile High Club in Denver, thinking they already won. Wrong fuckers,you will lose this election. The Republican machine has just been mobilized by this new event. Now, they have someone they can point their NRA Guns to, led by Palin. McCain is the POW being saved by NRA gun-toting Palin.
Obama is dangerous- he is a communist.
Hitler, Stalin, Castro, Chavez, Guervra were all eloquint speakers too!
god help us if that idiot gets elected
Hey Republican:
BUSH HAS DESTROY THE ECONOMY and the respect for the USA!!!
THAT IS WORSE THAN ALL THE EVIL YOU MISREPRESENT IN OBAMA!
So the guy is a communist because he’s not a Republican!
SOOOOO simpleminded that works as truths for the simple minded republicans!
Try to make it more simple so you can get to your audience: the dumb-asses!
John mccain supports a war that has killed thousands of american soilders how can anyone support that? What are our americans dying for? Its heartbreaking.
TEAM MCCAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Palin makes obama and oprah cry.
Sara Palin for prez….
Team Palin !
Sara Palin for prez….? WHO?
Ahhh republicans are a desperate breed.
Is this fanatic of McCain being paid to fill this blog with crap?
Repetition of crap just makes a big pile of crap!
I am really impressed with Palin as the vp choice. All of you who support Obama should take example from this impressive woman who is not afraid to stand up for what is right and has a resume with actual accomplishments on it. And yes, as usual, Marline is spreading joy and well wishes to all.
Reading these posts, there are a lot of ignorant fucks-both Democrats and Republicans.
Can’t you guys express yourselves without being so shallow and ignorant?
Geez….
Typical Republican move, using a woman as token for the same old conservative propposals: ignoring and slashing the right to choose, promoting war instead of diplomacy, cutting taxes to the rich(READ mega CORPORATIONS that take jobs to other countries) and then chopping out chunks of public programs such as education and infrastructure to ship money abroad for BOMBS! yeah Alaska is like the answer to the evil the Bush/Dick Cheney admn brought to both Republican rhetoric and the world! (wtf) Only the weak and the misinformed can see this woman as some sort of “good” for the republicans. It sound like a drop of hypocrisy in the BIG SEA OF HYPOCRISY the republicans call ideology
OBAMA/BIDEN 08!!!!!
Democrat: How in the world do you and other Democrats consider yourself so high and mighty when you are backing a man that who in 2002, as an Illinois legislator, voted against the Induced Infant Liability Act, which would have protected babies that survived late-term abortions. He is even more liberal than NARAL! If you want something to READ or WATCH, educate yourself about late term abortions or the “right to choose” you are protecting. I am so damn sick and tired of people who preach peace then vote for people who support these acts of violence that go on EVERY DAY. I call that the BIG SEA OF HYPOCRISY.
You caring so much for unborn fetuses and forget about the kids and the grown ups that are being destroyed by Republicans day by day! That’s not cruel…that’s just the rampant free capitalist republican view of survival of the fit (wealthy). Don’t talk about the unborn when you don’t give a shit about the MILLIONS of people being killed that are already here!
Republican: One who plays a part; especially, one who, for the purpose of winning approbation of favor, puts on a fair outside seeming; one who feigns to be other and better than he is; a false pretender to virtue or piety; one who simulates virtue or piety. That’s what you do with so called “abortion” card!
Like wars kill less than abortions! Bankruptcy, foreclosures, Corporate frauds…yeah, that’s not Important! you have to be a Republican to give reality that value! HYPOCRITES
Obama all the way.
McCain&Palin All The Way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. Obama could have won the election with Hillary.
Because of Mr. Obama’s choice he has handed the presidency to Mr. Mccain. Mrs. Palin not only helps but will insure a landslide for the Republicans in 08.
Mrs. Palin’s integrity and noble heart will win over millions of americans, even the ones that will not vote for her based on ideoleogy. Hope my predictions don’t offend but inform and bring much needed unity to our great country.
Deomcrat: “Like wars kill less than abortions!”
You may want to educate yourself a little in this area before making such a nieve statement. In 2005, 1.21 million abortions were performed, down from 1.31 million in 2000. From 1973 through 2005, more than 45 million legal abortions occurred (there are no official numbers on the illegal abortions performed before or after 1973). Sorry I could not get you the stats from 2005 on (they however average 1.3 million per year give or take.)
It is so convenient for you and others to somehow belittle this issue and make it seem somehow insignificant and call it a “card” that is played. At least be honest about what you are supporting. Democrat, you and others like you pretend to care about people and YOU don’t my friend.
Wow. McCain sure shoved a quick dick in the mouth of Obama’s media lovefest by nominating Palin. BO and the liberal media thought the public would be riding on waves of warm and fuzzy for Obama after the democratic production….erm, convention. Boom. McCain nominates Palin and all the country cares about is who is Sarah Palin? Poof. Barack’s big speech at the DC all but forgotten. Savvy.
Palin is a brilliant choice precisely because she doesn’t have much foreign policy experience, she’s young and not a long time veteran politician like Biden. McCain has all that covered. She resembles what Obama is trying to sell us; young, attractive and too woefully inexperienced for the office of president. The liberal media will have a hard time putting a negative spin on Palin because if they call her out as too inexperienced and lacking in foreign policy to become VP, well then, what does that say about Barack Hussein Obama as President?
All about abortions is a personal choice! READ WELL something about the reality that republicans love to ignore: PERSONAL AND LEGAL CHOICE!
SO you keep fighting the LEGAL choice of women while turning a blind eye on corporate corrupction and the fall of the economy under the rule of republicans trying to make a case for the unborn as a smoke screen!
Very republican of you to cite the bible and then provide guns for killing civilians! Keep bringing the LEGAL issue of the women choice while ignoring all others. Shallow perspective for a McCain government!
Palin is another just smoke screen of republicans! A failure already. Only those in denial thing this puppet McCain will get the presidency. People are feed up with the stupidity and hypocrisy of Republicans. If you wanna stay in the sinking boat Bush has made of his party…go ahead!
Who needs more babies in this planet! have you heard of OVERPOPULATION!
NOBAMA NOBAMA NOBAMA…..I DIDNT WATCH..COULDNT CARELESS….YEAH MCCAIN!!!
seer…. hope your predictions are true.
solaera ….. you had me roflmao….good line and true.
Ray honey, the reason I even brought up the issue of abortion is because of “Democrat’s” statement (25) about Republicans “ignoring and slashing the right to choose”. This always happens, someone on here begins to complain about Republicans stance on abortion and a response is given to THEIR statement and it turns into “you are using that as a smoke screen”. It’s laughable that they bring up the topic, then any opposition is met with the same crap you are saying. I don’t give a damn if it’s legal or “personal”, I think it’s violent and horrible. I have every right to my opinion as you do on yours.
PUMAS UNITED FOR PALIN !!!!!

Alaskans are demented homosexuals
