President Obama to give keynote address at HRC dinner

On the eve of the National Equality March, high-profile democrats finally start to take notice. First, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid sent a letter to the steering committee announcing his support. Then came the news today that President Obama will be addressing the audience at the HRC dinner on Saturday, a day before the march is to take place.

It's certainly a nice gesture, but I'm not holding out hope the President would be breaking any new ground in his speech. Yes, we'd probably hear the same I-am-your-fierce-advocate type of rhetoric, but that's about it.
