Iowa Rally Cedar Rapids
Edited on Thu Oct-28-04 08:23 AM by Rambis
Democrats were quick to contrast the crowd Kerry drew to one President Bush attracted when he spoke in the same arena last week. Bush drew barely 3,000 at that rally, less than half of Kerry's crowd.

All other media outlets have the crowd at 9-10,000


Election day begins at 6:30am for poll watching-
noon we start door knocking-
9:00pm We have a glass of the bubbly!

1. Way to go Cedar Rapids!
That is fantastic to hear. The media keeps saying how close it is, but I think the enthusiasm of our crowds and our enthusiasm of the supporters and the enthusiasm of our pundits, compared with the resignation and desperation you see on the other side tell a different story.
:bounce:

I spent three summers in Cedar Rapids when I was a kid, and loved it. (Actually, one summer in Cedar Rapids and two summers nearby, between Atkins and Shellsburg.)
