Bush Might Accept Nomination in Yankee Stadium
President Bush might add another distinction to the legendary "House that Babe Ruth Built" by accepting the Republican presidential nomination at Yankee Stadium.
World renowned as the arena where Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio and more of baseball's greatest players broke records and won world series after world series, Yankee Stadium is being eyed by organizers of the 2004 Republican National Convention as an ideal site to host Bush's acceptance speech.
According to the New York Post, the possiblity was raised to reporters by Jeff Kent, an organizer of the convention, when members of the media came to New York for a preview of the convention.
The Post reports that Kent sent out an e-mail asking members of the media to "ponder how you would want to cover an acceptance speech at Yankee Stadium."
