9:40 PM: Obama speech drawing attention of Boswell partiers

Congressman Leonard Boswell's party is starting to fill up as half the room is monitoring election results and the other half is watching Sen. Barack Obama's speech in St. Paul.

"I have been voting for Boswell for years," said Maggie Wittorf of Des Moines. "I trust him more than I do any elected official. I respect Ed Fallon and feel he has solid ideas, but I have been able to trust Boswell for years and I will continue to trust Boswell."

"I think re-electing Boswell is re-electing trustworthiness," said Hank Belhouse of Pella. "I don't think Ed Fallon is a bad guy, but I don't think he has what it takes to get the job done in Washington."
