Portland Fire Dept. Estimates 50,000 in Portland for Kerry!

[eeyore]

Just heard that on KGW channel 8 news in Portland. That actually sounds about right - I was there. Could the whores possibly be getting it? On the other hand, I have not seen a single report on national news that said anything beyond that he was here. Come on! 50,000 for a rally in August? That is UNHEARD OF!

3. Portland...

has a lot to be proud of today.

The national media doesn't. If they don't report it, did it really happen? At least 50,000 know it did!

6. Amazing

That's almost twice as much as the Texas Rangers usually draw on average during the MLB season.

7. That's fabulous

It is now apparent why Bush chose to go to Portland on the same day -- because he figured everyone who might march in the streets against him would be at the Kerry rally.

8. Did you hear Jay Leno's Joke??

Did you hear Bush is following Kerry around - Kerry goes to Iowa, Bush goest to Iowa, Kerry goes to Nevada, Bush goes to Nevada. The only place Bush didn't follow Kerry to was === Vietnam.

9. LOL
