10/6/12, "Romney gets 'group hug' from crowd of 5,500 in St. Pete," Bradenton Herald, Richard Dymond
"The defining moment of Mitt Romney's first Florida appearance after his consensus triumph in the first presidential debate was, perhaps, not something he said in his upbeat 25-minute speech, but the reaction of the crowd of 5,500, plus about 2,000 standing outside the barriers at St. Petersburg's Pier Park.
When Romney's campaign bus pulled into Pier Park at 6:50 p.m. Friday and the candidate got out, the crowd didn't just scream and cheer as is the norm for this kind of thing, but pressed in on him as he made his way to the outdoor podium, like a group hug.
That sense was echoed by some of the people who attended the rally."...
