The Municipal Auditorium in San Antonio, TX is gradually filling up with Obama supporters, many of whom are shuffling in after doing the Texas Two-Step.

Looks like his grassroots campaign is working…

We just polled 100 people as they entered the security line to come in. Out of these 100, 70 people had caucused; 30 had not.

The majority of those 30 were people who had been in line earlier than the rest. When asked why they didn’t caucus, many replied, “I wanted to be able to get in here.”

Caucusing began at 7:15 p.m. For an Obama rally, the crowd is admittedly smaller than usual. However, a police officer monitoring the event said he expects the rush to begin right about now, 9:30 p.m. This could be contributed to the fact that people are coming from the caucuses.

Today, people are showing their support in different ways than simply showing up to see Obama speak. They are going out, and doing what they believe needs to be done to ensure victory, rather than defeat.

As one young woman, walking in around 9:15 p.m. exclaimed, “I’d rather be caucusing!”
