Barackobama.com Servers Overwhelmed

www.barackobama.com/index.php servers were overwhelmed 18:30 Pacific, 2/6/08, returning a page in this glowing web site which perhaps is not often viewed.
UPDATE: After the site was back up, its Washington State Events page was down for another six hours, within a few days of the critical Washington State caucuses.
One moment, I was watching "Yes We Can — A Supporter Created Video" (on the site, that link is to a YouTube copy) while looking up when and where we could find Obama in Seattle this week.
The next moment, I was screenshooting a bit of history as this web savvy campaign’s site was almost offline, presumably per the audacious hope of its visitors and not by Mitt-bots, Hill-Bill-bots, or other assorted haters.
