What's a good Democrat like you doing in a place like this?
While Rocky was leading the protest at the City County Building, at least one Democrat was in Liberty Park showing his support for the troops.
"This is more my kind of community gathering," says Jeff Bell, communications director of the Utah Democratic Party. "I'm from a military family and I feel comfortable here."
As speakers blast Mayor Rocky Anderson and Cindy Sheehan, Bell explains that the Bush Administration is on a "treadmill in Iraq."
"Their strategy never changes and more Iraqis and more troops are getting hurt," he says.
Bell is not handing out pamphlets or even wearing a campaign button.
"I'm more here today for me," Bell says. "My dad served, my granddad served and my great granddad served in the military. There's a wide separation between disagreeing with the administration's policies and supporting the troops."
