Just got back from the Kerry/Edwards Rally in Orlando
HUGE crowd and very pumped up. I urge all of you to read the first part of JK's speech. He openly mocks Scrub for Schrubs comment today regarding the CIA. He was making big time fun of Dubya's stuttering when he answered the CIA question. It was kick ass!

1. Sounds like it was great.
I'm still waiting to hear from my parents who also were at the rally.

They were thrilled to be able to go.


It was a good day all around for K/E!!!!!!!!!!

2. I love Kerry's new attitude
Openly making fun of GW. I love it. And it seems to be working for him.

5. The whole thing was carried live on Local News 13
Wish I could have been there in person. Looked like a huge crowd with lots of energy.

6. It was great!
It felt so exhilarating to be surrounded by 10,000 Democrats in Orlando, everyone one of them pumped and dedicated! Both Johns were extremely articulate and straight forward, neither having to rely on teleprompters, notes, etc., just as a President & VP should be. How refreshing to listen to people with intellect. I hated for it to end.

19. I would agree with that number
Having a chance to work the rally - the lower bowl holds about 8k (which was packed), with another 2k on the floor.

17. What I find most stricking is how happy and excited folks are in contrast
to how Luke warm shit the folks at a * or dick rally. Those people look like they have constipation or they are going to throw up.
