John Edwards Does A Town Hall... On A Friday... On A Gorgeous Spring Night In New Hampshire

John Edwards finished the long first day of a two day swing through New Hampshire with a town hall in Victory Park in Manchester on Friday afternoon.

Ballsy. Happy hour on Friday + a beautiful spring day = tough to build a crowd.

But Team Edwards did build a crowd.

About 100 people showed up to hear the former Senator hold forth and take questions on a variety of topics.

Not bad at all. Even if the event did start 30 minutes late to let the last stragglers trickle in.

Sprinkled throughout the Edwards crowd were operatives from several other campaigns, Republican and Democrat.

Maybe they came looking for field tips?
