Peasants with pitchforks march on the Capitol

I'll be heading out to what's been advertised as a huge recall rally (and anti-recall counter rally) at the Capitol later this morning. I'll report back here this afternoon. The list of speakers includes not only Darrell Issa, Bill Simon and Tom McClintock but some others who might spice up the affair. They've got the Libertarian Party, the Reform Party, the Peace and Freedom Party, the American Independent Party, and they have folks like Republican Danny Ball, who ran for gov last year, and someone named John Estrada, who is identified as a Democratic candidate for president. Should be fun. Recall supporters say the thing will be broadcast live on CSPAN.
