Baby Got Barack in Berlin

We attended the huge Barack Obama rally in Berlin yesterday. There were hundreds of thousands of people on the street that leads away from the Brandenburg gate. We were well back from the stage where he was speaking but could see a huge monitor with him speaking. I don't think I've ever seen a larger, more well-behaved crowd.
The enthusiasm for Obama was amazing... random people on the streets have talked to us about politics... everyone seems wary and very tired of Bush and they all seem hopeful and excited about Barack. Forget the bromides McCain is laying down about Barack's speech here. Clearly the world is ready for a change in the US. McCain is not the answer- he would have drawn maybe thousands here instead of nearly a million for a 15 minute speech.
