11:34 am Sharpton Rally update from WaPo. It sounds like there are as many speakers as their are attendees:

They will have speakers at the rally until 1 pm, after which the five-mile march will begin, reducing the chance for a conflict. Radio host Joe Madison says the line at Dunbar High School is still wrapped around the block because of a bottle-neck through the field door. A good portion of the football field and all of the bleachers are filled. The dozens of speakers here each have three minutes on the mic and will touch on everything from ending gun violence and the right of gays and lesbians to voting rights for the District.

a Football field, oh my. That’s funny.

If anything, Sharpton and friends should be proud that conservatives are honoring MLK.

They should have promised some free Obama stash. Perhaps then they could have filled a real stadium.
