Hillary draws overflow crowd in Denver.

[William769]

DENVER - An overflow crowd welcomed Sen Hillary Rodham Clinton to her first major Colorado rally Tuesday, cheering the Democratic presidential front-runner’s anti-incumbent bravado.

The New York Democrat spoke to a crowd of about 5,000 at Denver’s Auraria Campus about health care, education and renewable energy. She proposed a universal pre-kindergarten program and promised to commit $50 billion to a strategic clean energy fund, funding it by taking away subsidies to oil companies.

She drew her biggest applause by bashing the Bush administration on topics from its handling of the Iraq war to federal overpayments to studentloan companies. Calling the current leadership “an orgy of cronyism and no-bid contracts,” Clinton vowed to turn around a country whose reputation and morale she described as dim compared to the admiration that it inspired after World War II.

“I want to be the president who not only gets the rest of the world feeling that way again, I want to get us feeling that way about ourselves again,” she told the crowd.

6. I was there

The colo spgs news cannot guess a crowd accurately... From the Denver post.

"Held under a bright afternoon sun on a central quadrangle inside the Auraria campus, Tuesday's rally attracted at least a thousand people - many of those faithful Clinton followers with signs reading "Clinton Country."

Bill drew at this time back in 1991 <50,000
don't believe the hype.

Additionally Colorado springs, is where Focus on the family is located. blustering the numbers is in fact rallying their conservative voting bloc.

and from the Rocky mountain news...

9. can you give me the actual dates and venues of the Bill rally?

Sounds more like the crowds he got in 1992, not the crowds he got in 1991. He had barely entered the race by this time in 1991.

10. I was 21 and a student there at Auraria (UC-D)

it was the biggest crowd I had ever seen up to that point.(cept for Bronco games and concerts like Pink Floyd) later when Bill Came through he spoke at Civic Center park. That rally drew 250,000 (I shook his hand) that was 1992.(before the Convention)
