Obama Faint Scam?

When I first watched that I just though "How nice, Obama is showing concern for them and helping them."

But then when he started asking for water and pulled one out from under the podium on more than one occasion and I thought "This has scam written all over it." Now of course he is going to have water under the podium when he is giving a speech, but I still don't buy it. It reeks of a scam to me.

So what do you think.

Actual incidents, or scams to make him look better to voters.

You decide.

No offense but of course you think it's a scam...you're notorious biased towards Ron Paul and against Obama.

Just because he had water doesn't mean it's a scam.

I sense no deception.

I am actually not biased against Obama.

Ron Paul is not going to get the nomination and I am going to have a hard time deciding between McCain and Obama if they are the nominees. I am leaning toward Obama in a McCain/Obama race.

Like I said, during the first part of it I didn't suspect anything. But how many fainting incidents can one guy have at his rallies?

It depends on the people there.

His core group are known for being emotional even overly so.

When you have overly emotional people they tend to reaction with faiting, yelling, etc.

You being Pentecostal like me should know that there are folks who just over react when they feel emotion or feel moved be it by man, God, or anything in general.

All this aside I find the idea that he's seeding the crowd with planted people to do this kind of a stretch considering his campaign is not hurting for votes.

Very interesting.

I just don't know. I thought it would make for a good discussion.

I still smell something fishy here though.
