In my opinion, right now all our battles should start with the media. When we stage rallies, it's success should be determined by how successful we were in getting our message into the media.
Take the Rally for America for example. We escewed a large national event and instead concentrated on having hundreds of rallies in towns all across the country. The major media ignored us but we did well with the local media and people watch the local news as well as Dan Rather.
Second, we had a tremendous opportunity to make impressions on the people driving by. I believe there was over 200 events during March (not all these were FReeper originated). How many people saw that message at each one? 5000? Using that figure we had the opportunity to influence over 1,000,000 people. Coupled with the people attending and good local coverage and that number probably goes up by a factor of ten or twenty.
I think this propgram was well planned and executed and obtained the goals and results that were intended.

I think the DC FReepers did a great job today, too.

Then we were a success today. The various reports noted that there was a counter rally supporting the troops and the President. That makes clear that the ANSWER march doesn't speak for the public.
And most of all, when our troops read about it, they also see ANSWER isn't everybody back home.
