In keeping with the strategy of lying to America, the McCain-Palin ticket has been caught lying about the number of people 'flocking' to hear them speak.
Yes, they've been caught lying again. Witness: Virginia

McCain-Palin Crowd-Size Estimates Not Backed by Officials
By Lorraine Woellert and Jeff Bliss
McCain aide Kimmie Lipscomb told reporters on Sept. 10 that an outdoor rally in Fairfax City, Virginia, drew 23,000 people, attributing the crowd estimate to a fire marshal.
Fairfax City Fire Marshal Andrew Wilson said his office did not supply that number to the campaign and could not confirm it. Wilson, in an interview, said the fire department does not monitor attendance at outdoor events. snip
Oh, Kimmie! Is this how you estimate the crowds at your Country Club Events? Really now, darling, is that necessary? I guess you are staying on point with LYING.
In recent days, journalists attending the rallies have been raising questions about the crowd estimates with the campaign. In a story on Sept. 11 about Palin's attraction for some Virginia women voters, Washington Post reporter Marc Fisher estimated the crowd to be 8,000, not the 23,000 cited by the campaign.
``The 23,000 figure was substantiated on the ground,'' McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds said. ``The campaign is willing to stand by the fact that it was our biggest crowd to date.''
Tucker then goes on to say that crowd size doesn't matter just the substance of John's record. Hysterical laughter ensued.
The McCain campaign said 10,000 people showed up at the Consol Energy Arena in Washington, Pennsylvania, home of the Washington Wild Things baseball team.
The problem? The campaign attributed the numbers to the Secret Service estimates, but...but...
``We didn't provide any numbers to the campaign,'' said Malcolm Wiley, a spokesman for the U.S. Secret Service. Wiley said he would not ``confirm or dispute'' the numbers the McCain campaign has given to reporters.
Gawd, it must suck to be McCain-Palin when you have to lie about your celebrity because it's sooooooo important, then out of the other side of your face you mock Obama for drawing celebrity crowds.
The green-eyed monster of jealousy is laughing his head off at you doofusses and your lobbyist know-it-alls.
