1. I think it was 2000.. and that looked like a stretched number.

2. A small army of dicks attended.
Along with a few white conservative vaginas.

3. less than 3000 showed, and those that did were instructed to spread out,
to make the crowd look larger.

Abysmal FAIL!

7. If they had put out blankets and picnic baskets, it would have looked
like any Sunday in Central Park. I thought at first the reports were being filmed an hour or two AFTER the "rally" had broken up.

4. HUGE Fail in this city. It was widely promoted, yet only a small % showed.

5. Cluster Fox News Estimate?
Too bad we can't get a pool going on how many Fox will say were there. 8 to 9 thousand?

9. How many of these attendees were just curious onlookers?
The true-believers in the corral were spread mighty thin.
