Don’t forget to check our Barack Obama live blogging from last night (Obama Live: Elitist Pinko Commie Edition) and our picture post from later in the evening (Barack Obama is President of the World: In Pictures).
Check out Hillbilly Report later today for tons of video footage.
Yellow Dog was there and has as story about how the risers filled up.
Ben Ray has great coverage and great photos. Though he underestimated crowd size.
Ryan Alessi has the most detailed story of the night. Good stuff about how Obama actually avoided Clinton criticism. Closed his piece with a great quote, “I think there are a lot of people who aren’t ready for Barack Obama because he doesn’t look like the typical politician they’re used to,” said Brittney Hunt, a University of Louisville senior from Mount Sterling. “It’s his race. It’s that he’s young. It’s that he’s different in general.”
There’s also a photo gallery.
Joe Gerth has the story about Obama’s policies, lack of Hillary criticism and enthusiastic crowd. Along with a photo gallery. We spotted a photo of Dr. Garrett & Mrs. Lane Adams losing their shit in excitement when they get to shake hands with Obama.
And photos.
Here’s a great video (despite the mention of Jerry Abramson, gag) of people losing their shit as Barry takes the stage.

Renee Murphy’s story is here (video). And Hebert says last night’s crowd may have been larger than any Clinton ever had.
Rick got into one of the overflow areas and has some photos.
LEO’s Stephen George has the skinny on making people faint and the circus that was last night.
Joe Sonka was there so he’s sure to have a story later today.
So was Ralph Long.
