Good to see the reporter a bit quizzical about why there were so many people (200 capacity had been reached) when Bernie was not even there.
Grassroots, baby.

I thought it might get 15 seconds or so...good coverage.

If his opponent has been able to muster that kind of grassroots enthusiasm I haven't seen it yet.
