Kind of a small crowd, probably because of the time- I don't know if any of the other events on this tour were this early in the morning. Both were good, but Dennis spent ten minutes answering the first question, which cut down on the number of questions being asked. The whole tone (among the audience) was of guarded optimism, but by no means as enthusiastic as we have heard about other venues on this tour. Not sure why, but Medved, who would probably be the one setting mood more so than the usually low-key Prager, had been on Larry King at 10:00 the night before, and I'm sure didn't get to bed until late Thursday night. He looked exhausted.
I was pleased to see a few blacks among the audience. If Republicans are the party of values, there should be more.
Anyway, thanks to 860 for sponsoring.
