The accoustics in the Rotunda are heavenly, and the USAF Singing Sergeants are too.

Yes, I remember being on a tour there, and the guide said that a whisper heard on one end could be heard on the other.

there will be. lots of african americans will come out for Clinton, organized labor, municipal workers, all the Dem voting blocks. it may not be spontaneous, but it will be well organized, they will ship people in if they have to - they can come up with 100,000 Dem mourners as fast as they can come up with 100,000 votes from dead people.

Steven seemed to be reading a eulogy off of some RNC talking points sheet... Cheney's eulogy came from his heart/soul...

Dan Rather lost it on Letterman when reciting a certain less than often used refrain from that song.
