Obama marveled at the size of the audience as he took to the podium: "All I can say is, wow." Read the Post-Dispatch's initial story here and check out their photo gallery as well.

Pop quiz who got the bigger rally? Obama in St Louis or the Iraqis demanding the Iraqi government adhere to his timetable?
