"All in all, our rally was a huge success. Sure, we were disappointed by the low number of people who actually showed up, and would have loved to see many more there."

You all did a great job, nonetheless! You should be proud of the good press coverage you received despite your numbers that day. Your best (most balanced) mainstream media coverage appears to have been from the local MSNBC/NBC affiliate News Ch. 4 and the worldwide Voice of America print and radio network.

TV coverage from Fox News Ch. 5, ABC News Ch. 7 were biased towards the enemy (MMM) and CBS News Ch. 9 basically ignored your rally.

Maybe I just missed the broadcast, but, did anyone see it on c-Span or CNN?

Thanks for the kind words--and also, thanks for letting us know what coverage there was. I did a radio interview with something called WTOP. but I hear that it was edited in a way that did not make any sense.

We do what we can, and can't spend much time worrying about things we have no control over. Basically, these rallies don''t accomplish all that much, and are very expensive and time consuming. We just feel compelled to be there to let those critters in the Capitol know that the poor Misinformed Moms don't speak for all women.
