3. I was at St. Pete tonight
I was working as a volunteer staffer. It was great. Huge turnout.

The Fire Marshall shut down entrance after 3,000 people entered the building, and the official police count said 10,000 attended. I talked to a friend inside, who's running for the statehouse, and he said he waited outside for over 3 1/2 hours.

Kerry gave a very good speech, not the stiff, wooden soundbites you see on TV, next was Theresa, then Mrs Edwards, and then John Edwards fired up the crowd as he does so good. After it was older they went outside and spoke and shook hands with all the people who couldn't get in.

Probably had less than 25 Repuke protesters across the street. The times, they are a changin'.

WE'VE GOT A TEAM NOW!!!!
