A different scene in Reno

RENO — Obama has finished his speech to 1,000 people here. Took no questions from the crowd, unlike a Vegas event Friday night.

Easily the least diverse — crowd-wise — of any event I've been to in Nevada, but that's Reno for you. Also: They played country music before and after. Don't ask me the name of the song, but lyrics included "Only in America — Keep it red, white and blue." Or something.

For more on his stump speech, see this story I filed from New Hampshire.
