Compared to Obama's 80,000 last night, McRage pulls in a whopping meh.
Touching down in Tampa for the first event in a grueling last day, John McCain got a reminder of one of the problems that has dogged his candidacy for months: the enthusiasm gap.
In one of Florida's largest and perhaps most politically important areas, only about 1,000 people stood outside the Bucaneers stadium to greet the GOP nominee.
It was 1/15th of the crowd [Snippy the Chimp] had four years ago in the same city.
Joined by a group of politicians and Bucs fullback Mike Alstott, McCain made the best of it, forging through his stump speech.
"The pundits may not know it and the Democrats may not know it, but the Mac is back." he said.

"Back-back-back-back... GONE!"
Heh. I wonder how many of them were actually bused-in school children.
