Went to the Edwards rally in Arkansas today and I'm so excited
to say we had such a HUGE turnout. I saw maybe 5 protestors and one was an old man who was waving a sign "abortion kills" ...:eyes: I wanted to say "sit down old man, what the hell do you know about being pregnant," but it was a fleeting thought 'cause the ENERGY was so high ...WOW! :bounce: :kick:

What a fantastic experience!!!

were there? And what part of Arkansas were you in?

3. I was looking around while I was there

and I was trying to make a "mental estimate" and I can safely say it was well over 1000 people and this is in Little Rock where it's divided. When I called to get my ticket the lady told me she had given away 200 tickets in an hour. Blanche Lincoln, the US Senator was there and so were many other of the state Democratic leaders. It was awesome.

4. Lincoln Is Great
I heard her speak at a program in Boston, and I thought thought she was terrific- you are lucky to have her as your senator.
