I've posed a question on my blog, The Broad View. Please take a look and if you have the first-hand experience of attending a rally, or can ask someone who has, leave an answer in the comments.
(And hey, while you're there, you might want to read my screed and that of my chief correspondent, Chiaroscuro. Now that the J-J Dinner is over, I'm gearing up to go back to blogging in a far more active way than I have for many months.)
Thanks!
