6. I counted 31 (!!!) delusional souls...

15. He may have been inside, or he hadn't arrived yet.
I was there from 1:25-1:40 for a scheduled 1:30 rally.

19. This was all outside...
No audience per se, just his folks on the left of the door, the rest on the right. 4 policemen to keep some of the sidewalk clear.

28. Kevin Roy of Channel 7 had this quote
"I deeply resent the destruction of federalism represented by Hillary Clinton's willingness go into a state she doesn't even live in and pretend to represent people there, so I certainly wouldn't imitate it." - Alan Keyes
