I didn't go expressly to take pictures, just grabbed a few as I went. This is likely the last one I'll post. I took about a dozen. This was the end of the rally. I'm standing with my back to the stage looking back and out at the sea of people. They were stretched as far as I could see. Keep in mind, the crowd has thinned by now. People were already streaming back up the streets on both sides out of view. Hotels, airports, metros - you didn't go anywhere in DC today without running into someone, usually wearing a state or local Tea Party T-shirt.
Every metro car seemed to have from many, to at least a few going from here to there. Yep. They were all fired up and ready to go.
Saw this article from "THE NEW YORK TIMES" ha.

"As Mr. Obama traveled to Minnesota on Saturday to rally support for his health care plan, he flew over the assembling crowd in Marine One. The helicopter could be seen flying overhead as the demonstrators marched down Pennsylvania Avenue."
