Haven't seen this diaried yet...but in a paragraph burried in the 5th paragraph of a LA times article covering the two campaigns, Matea Gold, James Gerstenzang and Edwin Chen note that "The Bush campaign, speaking to several thousand supporters in a half-empty sports stadium in Cedar Rapids for which aides had no ready explanation, countered by arguing that Kerry's policies would hurt the economy, citing his past support for tax increases. Bush tried to play off many of the comments that Kerry had made during their three debates"

Any other confirmation of poorly attended Bush rallys? Dare we start to hope? Dare we eat a peach?
