Obama and McCain at Columbia

Barack Obama and John McCain are at Columbia University right now as part of the Service Nation Forum. There was a lottery for tickets, and out of 15,000 students who registered, only 100 got in. I didn't get a ticket, so I'm sitting at the Journalism School's student lounge blogging and watching the speeches on a large screen.

To be honest, I'm not super interested in what both candidates have to say tonight, but the buzz and excitement on campus was interesting, especially the small protest groups. Here are some photos.
