23. our news channels in MN all covered the rally pretty well

cbs,abc,nbc

[TriMetFan]

26. Are you sure it was only 30,000?

I ask cause it sure looks like the same size of crowd that show up here in Portland OR in August and that was 60,000+. But still WOW. I just love seeing pics.like that.:)

[kikiek]

67. Not sure that was the fire chiefs estimate.

[NEDem]

2. OMG!

That's just amazing!

[charleston1]

55. It's one heck of a photo

Polls, who need polls with crowds like that? :-)

[whistle]

3. Yep, and every single one of them is there without a loyalty oath...

[AlCzervik]

4. Geez, HUGE!!!!

[deadparrot]

5. Ho-ho-ho holy crap.

That's one helluva lot of people.

[proud patriot]

6. Woa

:D

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

7. I was there! It was huuuuuuge.

30,000 raving Democrats!
That's me in the lower left-hand corner. ;-)

[buff2]

21. I like that jacket you had on......

It goes with the color of your eyes. :evilgrin:

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

8. Something is moving out there...

And the polls and the pols and the talking heads haven't got a clue.

[Polemonium]

9. That is simply Beautiful

Hope and truth not fear will win this thing.

[TexasLady]

10. loveit!

a beautiful sight to behold~!!

[xray s]

11. I am sad

I live in Illinois which will probably give Kerry 60% of the vote and I never get a chance to go to a cool rally like this one :(

[American liberal]

30. I know!

We don't get to see any of the nasty ads or nothin'. I've been feeling a bit like the red-headed stepchild. :P

[charleston1]

57. Go to a nearby state

There is nothing like it. It is electrical and will really inspire you!

[Skittles]

65. oh bite me, x ray

try living in Texas

[txindy]

69. HA! I was just fixin' to type that very thought! Texas is no fun in an

election year. But it will be. It will be! **fingers crossed** :toast:

That crowd in the pic is one of the biggest I've seen in a long time! It couldn't have been very warm in MN, either, especially at night. Those are dedicated supporters! Junior is soooo going to be toasted on Nov. 2nd!

[SammyWinstonJack]

70. Right?

:-(

[Mojambo]

12. Yeah, but it's the polls that matter.

:eyes:

[SW FL Dem]

13. Beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing n/t

[Vincardog]

14. Thats what we need more of pictures of JK and Thousand vs aWol with a

few dozen hand picked lackeys.

[naufragus]

15. they dont show this on tv, do they

[Nordic]

43. Gosh! They don't! What a surprise!

fucking media.

The media has become the true enemy of democracy in our country.

[wurzel]

16. And the mediacrity says Kerry is behind in the polls???

[AnIndependentTexan]

17. This is why we are going to win this election

[AnIndependentTexan]

18. pulled out just the picture

[RevolutionStartsNow]

20. Wow, that is SPECTACULAR!

People are fired up to see Kerry! Don't tell me that this guy isn't "winning over" the Democrats. If he won me over, he can win over anyone.

That's a beautiful picture.

[charleston1]

58. Thanks

Very nice!

[irancontra]

22. Here's another shot

amazing

[Cha]

25. I love this shot..

Thanks!

[oldtime dfl_er]

53. I just found my new "wallpaper"

Thank you DFL'ers!!!!!!!!

[Cha]

24. Wowsers!

That's a Sea of People! I love it, thanks!

[jezebel]

27. ABC's THE NOTE says the crowd was 20,000. Which probably means it was

40,000

56. Twenty Thousand???

I live in St Paul and saw a news cast of the meeting. There is no way in fricking hell that only 20 thousand showed up! The crowd had to be at least twice as much as that.

[charleston1]

60. I was wondering

I have been in the Metrodome once and I thought it held like 70,000? Is that right cuz if it is there has to be at least 35K people there.

[kostya]

28. Excellent!! We pulled 40,000 in Portland, OR weeks ago

For the longest time they had a picture of that rally on the johnkerry.com home page. Bush pulled about 2,000 to one of his loyalty oath "rallies" the same day. Of course, in the paper Bush was above the fold. :puke:

[charleston1]

62. Please say you are kidding

"Of course, in the paper Bush was above the fold."

Unfriggin believable.

[irancontra]

29. more photos

64. "Largest political rally in Minnesota history" !!!!!!!!!

[fishwax]

31. That. Is. Awesome.

I just can't believe that Kerry won't carry MN.

[KC21304]

32. Magnificent !

We had 11,000 in Appleton last Friday night. I can't imagine 30,000.

[LiberalFighter]

44. That has to be a big for a small town in the Fox River Valley

[0rganism]

33. Wow, it must have been tough verifying all their loyalty oaths - NOT!

Kerry interacts as a true man of the people, while bush talks himself up as a populist and acts like bubble-boy.

[SammyWinstonJack]

71. Heh!

Good one!

[FrankenforMN]

35. There is a LOT of enthusiasm for Kerry in Minnesota

The "liberal" label does not work here. From what I've seen, Gore did not have nearly as much support here, and he still won it. Kerry wins Minnesota big.

[USA_1]

61. North Star State

Since you live here in the North Star State, you know that EVERYWHERE you go there are FAR more Kerry-Edwards signs than there are for their reich wing opponents. How anyone can allege that it's a toss-up state is beyond all logic.


MINNESOTA IS KERRY-EDWARDS COUNTRY!

[qanda]

36. Dang, something is happening in this country

That the polls aren't picking up on.

[AnIndependentTexan]

37. More pictures from that Rally

[rockydem]

49. I'm glad to see him too

He's inspiring.

[Sugarbleus]

52. Big, warm, squeezy bear hugs to MAX! Bless his heart!! eom

[charleston1]

59. A real veteran

With vets like him we can do anything.

[Skittles]

66. CLELAND ROCKS!!!

:thumbsup:

[Carla in Ca]

51. Look how he is standing...like a rock star!

I feel the momentum building every day. Thanks so much for posting these pictures!

[Sugarbleus]

54. We HAVE to win this folks........Kerry is our best hope of

forestalling a new American Fascism. Kerry can stop the bleeding and the creeping feudalism in this country.

Looks like all those folks in the pic are as desperate as I am about getting our democracy back.......

GET EVERYONE YOU KNOW TO VOTE KERRY!!


Kerry Kerry Kerry Kerry Kerry Kerry Kerry Kerry Kerry Kerry Kerry

[LiberalFighter]

45. Freepers will claim the pics were photoshopped

[Diogenes2]

50. A million thanks for posting

[drhilarius]

41. Kick of awe.

[Gloria]

42. WOW!!! Kerry's is coming here on Saturday and it's going to be

televised!!!!! (Las Cruces, NM)

[TrustingDog]

46. it's a beautiful thing to see. thanks for posting it.

no way Kerry will lose unless it's Coup 2.

[nonconformist]

47. Holy cannoli! Now THAT'S a crowd! nt

[sonias]

48. That looks so beautiful

I am so jealous. Thank you MN for turning out like this for the next President of the United States.

Karl Rove has got to be wetting his pants about now.

[intheflow]

63. 30,000 spontaneously show up in Minnesota?

You can't tell me the polls are right, Kerry's got a lot more support than the mainstream press thinks (or reports).

[SammyWinstonJack]

72. If the Media bush*bots would show the overwhelming support

for Kerry, he'd have tons more. Now you know why they won't show photos like these. :grr:

[jlucu]

68. It was Awesome!

I was there too- it was incredible! The line to get into the rally area went all the way around the metrodome, both directions. The light rail was PACKED - but everyone was happy and helpful and fun. I was carrying my 7 month old (hoping a cute baby would get me to the front row for some baby kissing opportunities- but it didn't happen :( ... anyway everyone was chatting each other up talking to the baby - having a great time.
The crowd was overwhelming!

[TexasChick]

73. Wow!! OMG!! Chimp is toast!!! Hey, msongs, it's me...
