Over 800 turn out for Dean on sub-zero Fargo evening
This was the largest turnout for any Democratic event I've seen since moving to Fargo, including rallys for the phenomally popular Heidi Heitkamp when she was running for governor.

Given the weather (started the morning -20 F ambient) the turnout was awesome.

Given the my own informal take on the applause reponses, these were not 800 true believes, but 800 genuinely interested people (and, given that they turned out, almost certainly "likely caucusers/likely voters").

If people turn out like this in Iowa, regardless of weather, that will bode well for Dean.

1. Awesome
This shows that not only Bush but the Bush supporters are starting to frighten people and well they should.

In Fargo in the dead of winter for a Democratic hopeful....as I said...I am awed and delighted with the news, thanks for sharing.
