Rally for Congressman Tom Perriello (D-Ivy) featuring President Barack Obama in Charlottesville, VA. An estimated crowd of 12,000 attended the rally at the downtown Pavilion four days ahead of the midterm elections. This was President Obama's first and only speech in support of a sole house member during this election cycle. "He didn't go to Washington to do what was easy, what was popular," Obama said of Perriello. "He went to Washington to do what was right."
@DBGOGIRL: hmmmmm..........9,000 people on the downtown mall. Hungry, thirsty people. I would imagine the business folks on the downtown mall were pretty happy about that!

Mr. President:
you cost us so much with your visit..roads and streets closed and we business folks lost so much money. You cost Perriello the election by 9,000+ votes.
