Fainting Crowds Are Back At Obama Speeches

From Politico: The rally at Bowie State was a love-fest reminiscent of Obama’s rock-star days during the presidential campaign. The president was cheered wildly when he took the podium, one audience member shouted “We love you!” and the president interrupted his remarks when he noticed two people had fainted.

When Obama was struggling in the polls while he was running for president, several people would faint and Obama would point them out, looking like Obama saved the day for these people. When people started noticing a pattern, the fainting miraculously stopped.
Montecito, Calif., Sept. 8, 2007. "A woman standing in front of the stage appeared to faint as Obama spoke about Iraq," the Associated Press reported. "The candidate paused and asked the crowd to make way for firefighters. One supporter shouted, 'You're a good man,' leaving Obama momentarily at a loss for words. 'Well, I'm not the only one stopping to help her,' he said, sounding almost embarrassed."

So, with the elections near, is Obama pulling out all the stops, including the fainting spells to gather sympathy? One hopes not, but you cannot put anything past liberal politicians(and for that matter, RINO's who have been entrenched in Washington) to pull a stunt like this. It worked in 2008, maybe it will work now. People have short memories.
