Herman had expected only around 5,000, but this morning I heard it was at least 15,000 (or as CBS would say, around 1200:-)))
Great speech (as always) - great man.
Rumors were floating around that it was going to be much more than 5000, but his staff played it safe and only counted those who had RSVP’d :-)
It was a closed venue, they counted every person who came through the gate, so you can bet those numbers are pretty close :-)
