Obama event sold out

Minnesota's Barack Obama campaign says Saturday's event at the Target Center has essentially been sold out. A campaign spokesman says 15 thousand online tickets have been given out and the campaign

is expected to give out a few thousand paper tickets.

Update -- All tix are gone. No tickets are available. I'm told there's a waiting list of 2,000 people.
