I live in portland and they were both here on the same day ( the day that article talks about ) there were some protesters for bush but not too many from what the news said ) the main difference is you had to buy a ticket to get into see bush and a few 1000 people showed up. Kerry held an open rally in a big park. They expected about 16,000 to show up and over 50K did. They flooded the streets and bridges leading to park.
It sucked if you needed to get anywhere
