Yes, I can understand why your potential photo op was not taken up. Whenever we meet, I'll tell you about a photo op that I avoided in 1993 in Colorado Springs.

I look forward to hearing the story. When you mentioned Colorado I wondered if the episode took place in Woody Creek where WZ's good friend Hunter Thompson lived. HST reeked havoc on the train while covering the McGovern/Nixon race in 1972, and HST was supporting McGovern. I do understand why elected Republicans are afraid to be seen at events where misbehavior might occur.
