Kerry Edwards rally in Des Moines tonite - awesome....

[IowaGuy]

Great crowd - the whole crew was there. Theres, Elizabeth, John & John. Crowd was pumped. Don't know what the official estimates were for the crowd, but I'm guessing between 15,000 to 20,000 - that standin' out in the cold folks. Incredible!

1. I watched on C-Span, and...

It was the first time a Kerry speech has brought tears to my eyes.

3. Yeah, both Johns were on tonite...

Edwards is always good on the stump. Wife and I were working as volunteers helpin' direct traveling staff and press around behind the stage area. It was obvious JK was feeling good about being back in Iowa and feeling real comfortable with the way things are going. He was fool of energy, even after campaigning all day. Wish you could have been there - it was electric.

When JK spoke, he was probably the most relaxed I'd seen him before a large crowd, it was like he usually is when its just a few people around him - thats the real deal!
