Huge crowd at the Ron Paul rally this evening.

We were in the "backstage" area. Note how many people are on the other side, including on the roof.  And way up over there:



I have some video too. I need to edit some high spots. The crowd was very responsive, even chanting "end the fed." No heckling. No indication that there were any fans of big government anywhere in the vicinity. Abolish the income tax... cheers! More than once, they booed Woodrow Wilson.

ADDED: Here's the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel article about the rally:

Paul told the thousands gathered at a "town hall meeting" at the Memorial Union Terrace that he is often asked why young people are interested in him.

"One reason - they're getting a bad deal," he said, citing the debt they are inheriting from past spending decisions.
