Just left Kerry rally!
Lines were up to 1/2 mile long, 6 to 8 deep. Looks like a U of M football game. WJR reports "thousands". I say tens of thousands. Wish I could have stayed. Bought some great buttons, though.

1. Didn't they get the message?
CNN and MSNBC keep telling us that crowds are lukewarm about Kerry.

2. R-i-i-g-g-h-h-t. Lukewarm.
Then I personally saw 30,000 lukewarm Kerry supporters. Well, temp was about 65 degrees.

6. 65 degrees until the sun went down!
brrr... it was cold waiting in line after that. but i didn't see anybody leaving. we all stood there confident that we were going to see Kerry - even after we were told we wouldn't. (we did :-) ) there were probably at least 3000, possibly 5000, unlucky people waiting in line after the auditorium was filled to capacity. that was at apprx 7:00 p.m.

3. Oh, I know. It's shameless.
One of the idiots on CNN just said, "Was there anything the Kerry could have done..." as if he already lost the election.

7. Tell me more about this rally please, Stavka
I heard Kerry was going to be in Michigan on Saturday. Is he coming to the UM campus? The game starts at 3:30. What time is the rally?
