And there were enthusiastic conservatives in the room, to be sure. They applauded after virtually every sentence, and one hyper dude kept yelling "Yeah!" to almost everything.

I suppose that could be because of the changed around scheduling or something, but it played as quite a contrast to the full auditorium at the Pepsi Center, or the amazing capacity crowd at Invesco Field/Mile High Stadium.
