26. Are you sure it was only 30,000? |
|
I ask cause it sure looks like the same size of crowd that show up here in Portland OR in August and that was 60,000+. But still WOW. I just love seeing pics.like that.:)

That crowd in the pic is one of the biggest I've seen in a long time! It couldn't have been very warm in MN, either, especially at night. Those are dedicated supporters! Junior is soooo going to be toasted on Nov. 2nd!

I live in St Paul and saw a news cast of the meeting. There is no way in fricking hell that only 20 thousand showed up! The crowd had to be at least twice as much as that.

I have been in the Metrodome once and I thought it held like 70,000? Is that right cuz if it is there has to be at least 35K people there.

For the longest time they had a picture of that rally on the johnkerry.com home page. Bush pulled about 2,000 to one of his loyalty oath "rallies" the same day. Of course, in the paper Bush was above the fold. :puke:

The "liberal" label does not work here. From what I've seen, Gore did not have nearly as much support here, and he still won it. Kerry wins Minnesota big.

Since you live here in the North Star State, you know that EVERYWHERE you go there are FAR more Kerry-Edwards signs than there are for their reich wing opponents. How anyone can allege that it's a toss-up state is beyond all logic.

I was there too- it was incredible! The line to get into the rally area went all the way around the metrodome, both directions. The light rail was PACKED - but everyone was happy and helpful and fun. I was carrying my 7 month old (hoping a cute baby would get me to the front row for some baby kissing opportunities- but it didn't happen :( ... anyway everyone was chatting each other up talking to the baby - having a great time. The crowd was overwhelming!
