52. I WAS THERE!
The turnout was unf'ing believable. My personal estimate for the crowd is 120k to 150k. The girl standing in front of me was from Arkansas (drove up just for the event). The couple next to her from Illinois. The closest thing I can compare it to that I personally attended was Bill Clinton's first inauguration in 1993. It was that electric. Very smoothly run. Barak was his normal charismatic self. And the different types of people all there as one to support Barak. I'll remember this for a long time. I've never seen a campaign with this much energy.
