Wash Post coverage of Barack Obama at Nissan Pavilion:

Die-hard Obama supporters and undecided voters converged on the amphitheater in Prince William County three hours before the candidate was scheduled to take the stage at 6 p.m. State and local transportation officials had braced for a major backup on Interstate 66, but traffic was like that of a normal evening rush.

Hey, what happened to the anticipated traffic jam?  Or should the question be, what happened to the Obama crowd?

Here’s Virginia Virtucon’s take:

Just yesterday, the media and Democrat-ick officials and Obama campaign staff were claiming that Barry Obama would draw between 25,000 and 50,000 to his “Old-Time Traveling Medicine Show” at the Nissan Pavillion in PWC today where he would hawk his modern day snake oil remedies.  The Pavillion holds 25,000 for concerts and it was expected that nearly double that number would show up in a sea of humanity stretching far beyond the gates.

Now, the WashPo is reporting that only about 10,000 people showed up, which given their propensity for fuzzy math favoring Democrats, means there were probably more on the order of about 7,500 to 8,000 people there.  Even if they did reach 10,000, the place would have been more than half empty and only 1/5 the size of the crowd they had hoped for.

Barry, meet reality.  Welcome to Prince William County.
