UPDATED: Obama’s Appearance at Invesco Field
*Note from Catherine Morgan – This was originally posted yesterday. I think, sadly, many are missing this powerful speech by Obama at Invesco Field on Thursday evening, due to all of the Palin controversy. I agree we need to continue to discuss Sarah Palin, and I encourage more posting and commenting on the issue. But, just in case some readers missed Obama’s speech and/or coverage of it…I will also be adding links to video of the whole speech, and other commentary.

Video responses and commentary by the media on Obama Speech.
Now back to Tracy’s post…
I know you probably watched some of the convention and probably Obama’s acceptance speech on TV, but after watching it on TV myself after walking back from Invesco Field, I can tell you that the televised broadcast did not accurately portray the emotional reaction to Obama’s speech. There really is no substitute for being there, but this footage, taken right after Obama walked on stage gives you a pretty good idea of what it was like to be in the crowd at Invesco Field. I recorded the 2.5 minute ovation from my mile high seat. Enjoy the crowd (follow the link because I couldn’t embed my YouTube video).
