So we're waiting...a crowd of about 1000 invitees, lots of dignitaries (the Edwardses are expected, though I haven't seen them yet) plus legislative leaders, superdelegates, and a handful of other governors in town for Hunt's education meeting.
He's taking the stage in a minute.
Gov Easley's introducing him right now. Yes, you read that right. (Easley had endorsed Hillary Clinton.)
"I want to start by saying, I know I'm late, but I am on the train! (Wild applause)
"I'd rather be a bum in a boxcar on the Obama train than in the front of the bus with John McCain."
You can watch it at WRAL.
The transcript of Obama's speech is here.
UPDATE: Dome says Edwards is in the house.
More later...
