Repeat of the Iowa Rally on C-SPAN!
If you missed it earlier tonight, you'll have another chance to see John, John, Teresa, and Elizabeth on C-SPAN at 1:30am Eastern Time (10:30pm Pacific Time). It was wonderful. (I think I'll watch it again!)

1. I just got home
Any estimates on the crowd size? I heard 40,000-50,000 people. We waited in line for over 3 hours. 45 degrees. People were so enthusiastic despite the cold. Well worth the cold I will surely have this weekend.

How cool! Thank you for going. (And I checked weather.com while John Edwards was speaking - it was down to 41 degrees in Des Moines - brrr!)

The estimate I heard was 15,000, but I would think it was bigger than that.

5. sweep & 343
I liked the brooms the most, way to go Iowa! And 40-50,000 people, holy camoley, that's almost as big as the BIG one in Oregon, so that's ALOT for Iowa!! It looked like a great event on C-Span, they were all just excellent.

3. My daughter was there.
I am hoping she will call me and tell me how it went.

I think that stupid Cheney was in Davenport today. Is that correct?

6. Not 15,000
There were that many people in the parking lot still waiting to get through security when Josh Hartnet was speaking. This was huge.
