My favorite crowd rally attendee - in the sea of 150,000+ multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, reasonable people - was a man holding an adult, professionally taxidermied coyote, with a sign saying "I am not a coyote, I am you".
Google trends points out that the web was a-buzz with searches about the rally all morning:
250,000 attendance... link here. Not too shabby for a Saturday afternoon before Halloween.
ReplyDeleteAnd only 2 to 3 times as many as Glen Beck's angry, hateful, almost-all-white crowd. (but Tea Baggers estimated a fictional 1.5 million attended... yeah, sure).
