DENVER -- Democratic National Convention officials say Barack Obama will deliver his acceptance speech to his party's presidential nomination from the 50-yard line of the Denver Broncos' football stadium.
Obama will be standing in a circular podium 6 1/2 feet off the ground when he makes the historic speech, with almost 6,000 delegates seated on the field.

print journalists will be seated on the south end zone, with television networks having platforms on the field next to the delegates. Control booths and stand-up areas for broadcasters will be positioned on the other side of the field in front of Obama.....The draft plan has Obama walking to the circular podium along the sidelines on a 36-foot carpeted walkway.
I bet he floats out there on a magic carpet ride.

Why bother with a platform? Just let him levitate there.

Is there nothing the magic negro really can't do?

This is getting way over the top. Once again as in the Wellstone Memorial, the RATS are overplaying their hand. Hopefully the American people will send this over rated blow hard back to where he belongs—in the Senate with the rest of the windbags.

How appropriate. The 50 yard line is just as far away as one can get from the GOAL.
May he always stay right there!

Didn’t Tom Clancy write a novel with Muslim terrorists nuking this particular stadium, along with 80,000 people or so in the stands?

Certainly a stroke of political theater to enhance the “building wave” image and to create a sense of “inevitability”.
But the last dumble who was “inevitable” had to slink back to her chair....
Lets hope that happens again.
