"Former President Clinton headlined a rally for Democratic congressional candidate Jerry McNerney at Stockton Municipal Airport on Wednesday night, two days before first lady Laura Bush is slated to stump for Rep. Richard Pombo in Pleasanton." (source)

"Nearly 1,000 people waited in a drizzle that became a downpour to see Clinton cheer them on to help McNerney unseat the seven-term incumbent.

They used umbrellas. They used McNerney's signs - even cardboard boxes and plastic sheeting -anything to keep dry.

But none seemed to mind. They could feel victory within their grasp." (more-at-source)
