It seems that the largest audience for a Barack Obama rally during this year's presidential campaign numbered 35,000 in Philadelphia just before the Pennsylvania primary.
The New York Times now reports that the crowd yesterday in Portland, Oregon (the Beaver State, of course) more than DOUBLED the old number: an estimated 75,000 packed themselves onto the shores of the Willamette River to see & hear the the person I hope & pray is the next President of these United States!
The two pics they posted on the Times website just really impressed me, and I wanted to share them here:
