ANSWER's predeliction for organizing rallies that involve three hours of standing around listening to mostly dull speakers is annoying enough, but when the wind chill is like -40 F, it's excruciating. Aside from that, though - and the hamfisted propaganda video they showed on the bus - the ANSWER presence was greatly upstaged by all the other people at the rally. It's like they were a catalyst for something much larger than themselves.
