One detail about this march, they did not march. It looked suspiciously like a rally to me. I was never a community organizer, so who am I to judge?
From the website of one of the organizing groups:
On Saturday, October 2, 2010, hundreds of thousands of people from across America will gather at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. to demonstrate our re-commitment to change. The One Nation March will feature human and civil rights leaders, labor leaders, environmental and peace activists, faith leaders, celebrities and sports figures – all marching together to help Put America Back to Work and to Pull America Back Together. And to help reorder our national priorities so that investments in people come first.
More info at that site. It really did not look like "hundreds of thousands" to me. The crowd was very nice. Much nicer than past rallies for events hosted by the Left.
I only stayed in the area for about one hour and recorded most of my wanderings on video. "Editing" that now, meaning posting it to my
YouTube account in the proper size files with titles and other nice goodies.

rally march:
