Mr Obama, concluding a two-day swing through the Western battlegrounds of Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado, renewed his favourite theme — that Mr McCain represents another term for Republican President George W. Bush.
“We’re not going to let George Bush pass the torch to John McCain,” Mr Obama told audience estimated by Denver police at more than 100,000 — the biggest crowd in a campaign that has already set records for fundraising.
The gathering, which Obama aides said exceeded the 100,000 who saw Obama at a recent rally in St. Louis, jammed a downtown Denver park and filled the steps of the Colorado state capital building.
