HOUSTON -- If Texas Gov. Rick Perry runs for president, the type of crowd that attends a seven-hour prayer rally in a football stadium would not be disappointed.
Held in the venue where the Houston Texans play, more than 25,000 people here attended "The Response," an event that was part prayer service, part

Wait, I thought the media was telling us attendance was going to be a bust?
No thanks. Not interested in a Dubya clone.
Most of the comments on this story at the link provided are so hateful towards the event and Christianity that you just have to call them evil.
If liberals are so tolerant, then why do they care if 25,000 people gather in Christ’s name on a Saturday afternoon...unless their Master felt a disturbance in his power. I love to see the power of God!
Be voting for Mitt then?.....very impressive.
Final count...30,000+....and what an event it was. Our youth was so inspiring that it renewed my faith.
I admit I missed the old gospel music, but this has helped me deal with the fact our youth are the future. And tho we had a great past, they will pave their own roads to glorify HIM. And glorify HIM they did today.
Made me stand up several times and yell ‘YA HOOTIE! YOU GO GUYS!’
And then there were the others:
Dubya clone? Do you even know those two guys don’t even like each other? And the older Bush’s are already conspiriting for Mitt?
Less than half capacity, but impressive for a hot Aug day.
“No thanks. Not interested in a Dubya clone.”
We’ve pretty much debunked that argument this week. Perry’s worse.
Perry's audience Saturday was filled with people who sang with arms outstretched in prayer — and wept — as Christian groups played music on stage. And Perry, himself, huddled on the stage in a prayer circle with several ministers who helped lead the event. It was Perry's idea and was financed by the American Family Association, a Tupelo, Miss.-based group that opposes abortion and gay rights and believes that the First Amendment freedom of religion applies only to Christians.
note the “rainbow” flag in the picture of the haters.
His appeal to the religious through cheesy antics such as the event chronicled here is akin to Dubya’s MO. Not going to fall for that scam again.
In looking at your profile....you are one sick obsessed dude or dudette...in your hatred for the Bush’s....IDEA...vent that anger to a real devil....the current occupant in the White House...
Uh...well lately the First Amendment in America has applied to everyone BUT Christians.
First time I saw him on TV. Amazing!
Mitt the Rino. He was caught employing illegals, was he not? Twice!
Ok. Who are you voting for, very simple question.
liberals are not tolerant.
They’re the same as the people who want to CONTROL OUR FAITH and OUR LIVES.
Now who that could be?
