Can you estimate the size of the crowd?
It was packed, as many as the convention center could hold, I heard 15,000 for a Saturday morning...if that many people are willing to get up at 5 or 6 am and wait till 4 hours, I like what I see.
It disturbed me a little that in Ohio when everyone kept cheering for over five minutes he finally said "thank you, you have lifted our spirits". Usually you say, "you lifted our spirits" when you are feeling kind of down. Maybe it was just a poor choice of words, but I hope they are optimistic about winning.
