7. You missed this guy...


He's Barney Smith, a laid off factory worker from Marion, Indiana (I think), who lost his job to outsourcing. He said he's voting for Barack because "America needs to put Barney Smith before Smith Barney."

It was a great moment, and he brought the crowd to its feet. :)

6. BARNEY! BARNEY! BARNEY!
The crowd was chanting his name. How great is that for a story for your grandkids? I'm loving this stadium-- Obama's proven his naysayers wrong, once again.
