Over at Pioneer Park: Mike Fox, one of the many organizers of the Rise Up! The System is Broken demonstration, had a few comments as he packed up his signs at the end of the evening.
"I think it went fabulously," said Fox about the gathering of 150 that brought together 30 different progressive organizations. "Even though you had divergent views, everybody seemed respectful of each other. ... Community was built today."
Ron Paul, Part 4: Back at the Palladium, Paul arrived at 11:35 p.m. to a rock-star welcome with his granddaughter in tow. We kept asking people what they were going to do after the meet-up ended. Everyone said the same thing: "I'm goin' home. I gotta work tomorrow!"
If this event was in any way indicative of what the election season will be like, we should be in for a very entertaining 2008.
