Kerry Wows Las Cruces ... and Anthony

has a couple of pages of photos from Kerry's rally in Las Cruces yesterday, October 23rd. The wildly enthusiastic crowd numbered more than 17,000 people! The Official Kerry-Edwards website has additional photos from the Las Cruces event, as well as a couple from the Pueblo, CO rally that same day.

The El Paso Times has a nice story on the Las Cruces event. And as described in this article, Kerry visited the Red Rooster Cafe in Anthony NM after the rally, with Gov. Bill Richardson and Lt. Governor Diane Denish in tow. Later, he attended Saturday night mass at St. Anthony's Catholic Church. ABC News also has a story on this.

I note that on the same day, Cheney held a closed event in Farmington NM with 1,300 people. You do the math . . . .

Oh, and be sure to check out Wolfpacks for Truth, wherein the wolves used in Bush's latest ad express their distain for how they were used and lied to! You can see the ridiculous "Wolves" ad at the Bush campaign website. Wash your hands after visiting. And toss a few dollars to one of these wolf conservation groups.
