6:33 p.m.: The tens of thousands of Obama fans are being entertained as they await the senator. The reggae musician Patrice kicked things off, followed by the rock band Reamonn.It isn't the first time that this tactic has been used to, presumably, up the attendance numbers for an Obama speech.
There were roughly 200,000 people in attendance, give or take a few thousand reggae fans.

And McCain's press conference in the parking lot of Schmidt's "Sausage Haus und Restaurant" in Columbus' German Village neighborhood was an inspiring beacon to the world. He totally eclipsed Obama's Berlin speech today with that one.

" He totally eclipsed Obama's Berlin speech today with that one."
Without having heard it, I'll guarantee that it had more substance that Obama's speech. It couldn't possibly have had less.
