Parade-goers adore Hillary (so do I!!)

http://www.thetimes-tribune.com/site/news.cfm?newsid=19396854&BRD=2185&PAG=461&dept_id=415898&rfi=6

Scranton Mayor Chris Doherty and Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton enjoy the antics of the crowd during the 47th annual St. Patrick's Parade Saturday.
Maybe no St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Scranton thrilled like this one.

A crowd that organizers said was the largest in the parade’s 47-year history jammed downtown streets to greet Democratic presidential candidate and New York Sen. Hillary Clinton, who returned to the city Saturday for the second time in five days, again to adoration.




“Hillary, Hillary, Hillary,” the people who filled downtown sidewalks frequently chanted.

As Mrs. Clinton walked, dozens of people constantly rushed ahead on adjacent sidewalks to get as close to her as possible. It was less orderly than her visit Monday to Scranton High School, but the feel was the same. They cheered, they clapped, they waved at her, they shook her campaign signs, they snapped pictures with digital cameras and cell phones.


Girls screamed like when the Beatles arrived in the United States or when actor Drake Bell showed up at the Mall at Steamtown in December. Organizers said they were sure Mrs. Clinton’s presence drew the larger crowd.
