Not to denigrate the Columbus efforts but I was at the Cincinnati rally yesterday and we had multiple thousands down on Fountain Square. (I don't know how to put a good count on the crowd)

Hi Recon Dad,

Not a problem. Thank you for tuning in and for commenting. I really appreciate it.

I checked the other cities and that is when I noticed that there were really LOTS of Tea Parties. I believe Columbus had at least three, one each on Fri, Sat, and Sun. We were the last.
It wasn’t until the third one that we decided to attend and to video record them and photograph them so we could perhaps reach more people than those who drove past. We hope to do more in the future.

I actually counted people as they walked past me as I looked over the crowd parading past me in my perch up on a 4 foot high wall, so I had a pretty good count at my 150 number.

Meanwhile, I am originally from Northern KY (I even know who Stan Matlock was and how Jim Scott got started at WSAI.) and I am really pleased to see that Cincinnati turned out for a Great Rally. Keep it up and perhaps you can invite me to record the next one?

Joy! ([: ^ )

Recon Dad,
I just saw the Cincinnati Rally posted on DRUDGE and found the following link for the Kentucky Post:

I don't know how to put a good count on the crowd... Count a group of about 100, then get a firm grip in your mind of how big that space of people is from where you are standing. Estimate how many of those spaces are in the crowd. That will give you a rough estimate.
