5. It would be most appreciated for

some snippets for those of us not in a position to use speakers right now. thanks !:)

[New Earth]

6. this sounds like a pretty big crowd!

[Generic Other]

7. 3 to 4 thousand people according to eyewitness

Bitter cold wind, lines of busses with people who are too cold, police presence on the edges of crowd...

[LiberalAndProud]

8. David Litel from Washington DC to speak next.

Welcome

[LiberalAndProud]

9. We are on are way to changing our name.

Every time we defeat him we have to go back and re-defeat him again.

[LiberalAndProud]

10. We are going to keep shouting until we are heard.

I won't go back over the reasons that you know that this is electoral coup 2004.

They are out to lunch an 430 Capitol St.

Thank god we have libertarians and greens...

[LiberalAndProud]

12. Ask yourselves look a couple of years ago

were we right when we said SH did not have WMD? We were right.
Were we right when we said they were lying about how much the war would cost in dollars lives and casualties? Were we right? Are we right about this?

[LiberalAndProud]

15. Conclude:

All we're going to get from the commercial news media is advice telling us to sit down and shut up. We are a part of the reality based community. We think we should trush things we can see with our eyes. We are not going to countenance faith-based voting.

I continue to see the Democratic party as an extremely important institution in this country. Others may be right.

This is about political power and how to break the Rep stranglehold on the process of election.

We urgently need to return to power because as long as * is Pres so much will remain undone. So much will remain unbegun.

Lost and hungry to be found and fed.
Peaceful world waiting to be built and kept.
The work will never be done. Not ever.

[Pithy Cherub]

[Sydnie]

40. this was posted last night

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=2785425

Two other ways to try to access for you maybe?

[Cobalt Violet]

25. Who is talking now?

26. fritakis ? hes fired up lol n/t

[rockedthevoteinMA]

27. Who is he?

He was great!

Lynn Landes up now!

[kk897]

57. Fitrakis is the greatest

He's the Free Press guy upon whose work so much of the movement has depended. His speech was a reworking of the Gettysburg Address. Awesome!

[Twist_U_Up]

28. They where saying that

there where buses LOADED with people that didnt want to get out because it was too cold and that the meetings tonite would be the part where they break out the big guns cant wait . I think that starts at 7

[Stand and Fight]

54. No.

That starts at 6pm EST, 5pm CST, 4pm MST, and 3pm PST.

[kk897]

56. TOO COLD?!

That's just ridiculous. I can't believe that. There were people in those busses who didn't get out to join us who were freezing our asses off?

What, democracy isn't worth a little chill?

I can tell you this, we could've used a few more warm bodies down there in front of the State House.

Did they really say this on the radio?

ARRRRRGH!

I mean, it's not like anyone was in danger of frost bite. It was in the 40s, just a real mean wind chill.

[Carolab]

62. NO Shit

We are all a bunch of WUSSES. PEOPLE!!!!!

If 10,000 Ukrainians can stand in SUBZERO temps for two weeks, WHY CAN'T WE?


MY GOD!!!!! IF I LIVED IN OHIO I WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE. As it is I planning to drive from MN to help with the recount when it starts, so I couldn't afford to make two trips.

ALL OF YOU WHO LIVE IN OHIO AND ARE NOT RALLYING AND DEMONSTRATING--SHAME ON YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

[roseBudd]

64. I was there it was the wind, that was misery, you couldn't even hold up

signs and the Blackwell RECUSE graphic I handed out was flapping off my clipboard as I handed it out.

I saw at least 2 people who had my BUSH CHEATED 04 graphic, and 2 people told me they were form DU. I had red theatrical blood on my hands, a black hoodie, 2 clipboards with flyers, 1 was pink and said Ilegally Blond and my sign was on silver insulation board and had a Ken Blackwell pic on it. Go to http://somanmblst.tripod.com to download the high res version of the files.

[kk897]

65. Hi---I didn't see you but

my husband and brother-in-law must have, since they had your cool flyers! Thanks for being there and suffering in the cold. My husband and I tried to make a sign, but we messed up both sides of the piece of foam core we had. Luckily, quite a few people had extras to share, so I did get to wave around a small sign (on one side it said "Honk 4 Recount" which I showed when I was up at High Street, and the other said "Demand Justice Now," which I waved when I was in the crowd.)

People there all seemed like such good folks. I just wish there had been more, I don't know, menace. More "we mean f-ckin' business"! More rowdiness. More "grrrrr" and less "yay!"

Can't wait for the recount to start... I volunteered and got on the three mailing lists (which had problems for a while, but seemed to be back on track). Sounds like we'll get some sort of training next week.

mentioned votes in dumpsters

"When the Bush family tells us they're going to help us vote, I get a little nervous"

Now talking about the "caging list" and African American precincts

"I'm sure Mr. Ashcroft will be on this ANY DAY..."

They're going to talk at a school on East Livingston Ave... (Palast said Leonard St. ?) about an issue... one million black votes were not counted in 2000, worse this year... we have an apartheid election system in America.... what we are seeing here in OH is a lynching by laptop... we have an SoS in charge of the vote count who is also in charge of the BC campaign.... the only way you can wear two hats is if you have two heads...

now he's done...

[intelle]

52. We'll just have to wait and see

There will be pictures and other reports. I tend to believe the speaker who estimaed 3K-4K. But then, this might be wishful thinking.
:hi:

[angrydemocrat]

53. I agree

I will have to wait and here other reports. Why would the speaker lie about how many was there? That don't make sense.

[texpatriot2004]

59. Does anyone know at what point the rally news starts on the link

I wanted to fast forward to the rally and the link doesn't have that option?
