Cynthia forgot that it was George Wallace who taught all the politicians in America to NOT hold political rallies in large open parking lots ~ sure, they can see you and you can see them and it's all warm and fuzzy, but there are these mad dog killers who don't care ~ they can use the audience to get close and BANG!!!

For what it's worth Gabby seems to have been totally unaware of the existence of George Wallace, and what happened to him ~ and she actually held an open air parking lot event the same year Arthur Bremmer was turned loose!

We need a mandatory course for everyone running for public office. It would be titled "Stayin' Alive On The Campaign" ~ they'd cover types of talk show personalities to not talk to, where to hold meetings, what to do with other people's cellphones and cameras, armed guards, unarmed guards, ...... all the hazards that can take down a campaign or a candidate in a second!

I believe the Sergeant at Arms of the House of Representatives has such a program for new and current Representatives ~ apparently Gabby didn't think it was worthwhile. Now she knows although it might be difficult to tell that! She sure can't explain it.

Well actually Bremmer was released in 2007. Still a good point.
