Edwards campaign reroutes to Abe & Jakes amid downpour

Democratic vice presidential hopeful John Edwards prepared to speak at Buford M Watson Jr Park but rain forced a last minute venue shift to Abe & Jakes Landing in Lawrence. Police Secret Service and volunteers scrambled to secure the 720 capacity venue while crowds outside listened to speakers as Edwards addressed supporters from the lawn and mall area.
