Obama Making History, Again!

Just as much of Sen. Barack Obama’s campaign has been so far, his nomination speech in front of 75,000 people at the Denver Broncos stadium will be rich with historical significance.

Mr. Obama, who will be the first African-American presidential nominee for a major party, will give his acceptance speech at Invesco Field on Aug. 28, the 45th anniversary of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” address. And he will be the first nominee to give his speech outside the convention hall since Kennedy did so in 1960, when he drew a crowd some estimated at 50,000 at the Memorial Coliseum in Los Angeles.

Think McCain or any Republican can draw this kind of crowd?
