Toledo was brimming with enthusiasm just before Barack's visit. Duffy Lyon, perhaps better known as the butter cow lady, sculpted a Butter Barack:

And Meisha and Ericka, the official Obama cheer team in Tama County, led the crowd in "I-O-W-A, Barack Obama All the Way" and "Fired Up, Ready to Go!":

The sign-up tables and gymnasium were packed:

General Tony McPeak is along for this part of Barack's 'Stand for Change' Tour and is one of the people who has been introducing Barack at each stop.

He talks about intelligence, leadership, and judgment as some of the critical qualities that our military leadership needs in a Commander-in-Chief, and why he is taking time away from his family during the holidays to talk to Iowans about Barack.

A lot of things need to be changed in this country, and I think there's only one guy who has a real shot of getting this done.

Barack talked about the way things could be.

There is a moment in the life of every generation where if we're to make our mark, our spirit has to break through. And this is our time. This is our moment.
