C-Span had a good crowd shot a few moments ago. There are definitely a few thousand, not the few hundred people were saying earlier
So glad there are already a few thousand. As long as we have real crowd shots because the media will be using the earlier ones showing about 200 umbrellas.
Will she announce though? No Ionic Columns and giant teleprompters. No Oprah. Lol..
Lots of people sitting in their cars...crowd should easily double at the time that Palin speaks as she’s the reason most of them are even there. It’s a shame about the rains, it’s definitely keeping the crowd size down and giving fodder to her critics. It doesn’t help much that most of the speakers on stage so far are rather flat and monotone. Let’s hope future Palin events feature more dynamic speakers.
For those bummed about the crowd size, I doubt Perry, Romney or Bachmann would do any better. There will be bigger crowds once Palin is in this officially.
