there's about 7 or 8 thousand people here - about half the number who pleged to show up. Still, it's a good crowd. It's hard to judge since about half of us are sitting in the shade around the edges of the Capitol lawn.
I got naomi Woolf to sign my copy of her book - that makes me happy. :)
There are about 5 more speakers on before ron Paul gets on stage. I'm expecting the crowd to go nuts once he gets up there. I'm going to try to get up front in time for that.
I'm still impressed with how friendly everyone is, even in the heat and humidity. A very nice woman gave me a ron Paul sign.
