I went to the deal at Federal Plaza, Chicago. The pro-single payer people numbered about 250 and there were about 30 against on the opposite side of the street, which is what I was informed how they always do it.

They hired some homeless to show up to get to that 250. It looked kind of pathetic, but the 30 against looked sad as well. However, these anti-Obamans have a very high proportion of extremely cute girls.

I got a hold of a vet-Marine. We had an awesome conversation.

Bottom line - they got 250 people to show up in a metropolitan area of 8-9 million. Payed some homeless. It was a joke.
