Four years of blind adoration

GOPpundit at ColoradoPols.com attended both the recent McCain and Obama appearances here in Colorado. He noted an interesting difference between the two events.
On the one hand you have Obama who took precisely zero public questions and did not hold a single event open to the public. On the other hand you have McCain holding a townhall that burst at the seams where he proceeded to take question after unscripted question.

The Democratic National Committee has rented Invesco Field for Obama's acceptance speech. (How they're going to pay for this, I have no idea, given their economic woes and the $3 million price tag to rent Invesco.) The CEO of the convention makes the following claim (emphasis mine):
Leah Daughtry, the chief executive officer of the national convention, says the decision to allow more people to witness the historic speech highlights the fundamental differences between Obama and Republican John McCain and shows that Obama is more inclusive.

I'm so glad that inclusive means getting to gaze speechless upon the face of the Messiah.
