"You rang?"

I'd take the bet that it stays. No way you could plan a new convention for September at this late date.
I'll take this one, Pat.
Because Romney is more pro-homosexual than Obama. Obama is doing this now because the hand-picked candidate of the GOP-e cannot be seen to be more socially liberal than the democrat candidate. (And this social conservative will NOT be backing Romney.)
Gay marriage brings the right to the polls like nothing else.
Whomever O is using as an adviser, I hope he keeps him and gives him a raise. Pleeeeeeease!
Or Fire Island?
Butt sex is the face of the Democrat Party, and it stinks.
"You rang?"
Want to bet they switch their convention from North Carolina to Florida or Ohio?
San Francisco
Whomever O is using as an adviser, I hope he keeps him and gives him a raise
that be, “ Ben Dover “
Very difficult, but not impossible.
At minimum, they would have to accept a serious downgrade of accommodations in order to get it done. Even midsized cities have facilities capable of hosting the convention itself, but the hotel room demand pretty much limits the possible venues. Of course, given the crappy state of the economy, it might be far less than we think.
Then, you have demand for airline flights in and out of the city. Given the massive reduction in airline seat availability, this could be a big problem, depending on the venue. You will probably need a hub city for a major airline.
Throw in the demand for night life, dining, drinking and hookers and you limit it still further. And, since it is the Democrats, you would need more than just the heterosexual variety of hookers. Of course, some of these establishments are willing to follow the demand.
So now if he loses, it will be because we are a nation of people who can’t handle gay marriage — instead of a nation standing up to a socialist, Marxist, doing everything he can to become a dictator??? I wish everyone would just stop talking about this crap, backfire or not, he will not win because there are too many (and have been too many for quite some time) smart ABO’s out here! I have many a friends who fell for the whole “hope and change” routine, they all regret their vote! Well... almost all of them! He will lose, and they will blame it on gay rights stance instead of his record of total failure in office!
Florida passed a constitutional amendment with a 62% margin.
They can’t. They wish they could, but it would be a logistical nightmare.
remeber the old John Belushi SNL sketch where they did a parody of Captains Coragious or was it Treasure Island?
Yeah, the security arrangements would have to start over from square one, which is a non-starter. And after North Carolina taxpayers footed so much of the bill for preparations, they can write off that state for the next ten elections if they pull out now.
31 States have rejected gay marriage when it came to a vote. Even here in CA it was rejected. Obama stepped on it this time.
“Logistical nightmare”?
Nooooo problem! Ray Nagin will handle the transportation issues.
He will use either the school buses (surely they must have dried out by now?) or else all the many Democrat-loved “light rail” systems in use around the country.
