“Give Sarah Palin’s fans 24 hour notice, let alone the months that the Dems had, and the 74,000 seats would all be filled”
Wow, you are sooo right....I wish Sarah had thought of doing that at some nearby venue on the same night as the speech. Although the media would have simply ignored it.

My husband just pointed out they should not have "required" those pesky PHOTO ID's. ;-)Rush mentioned that during the first hour of his show today.

>>>They cant blame it on the weather...Ive been checking. Only a 20% chance of showers.
Well...as a meteorologist...I think its actually a good reason. Chances are better than 20% for rainshowers/thunderstorms...more like 30-40.
However, it shows lack of planning and consideration for the weather (sort of like what the GOP did putting the convention in Tampa...). Why run the risk of having a rain-out? It's summer and tstms happen in the southeast.
Of course...I'm sure they are happy to solve their seat problem too.
To: Nachum
They are busing people in from all over the area..Black churches and out of bars as far away as Alanta.
Tickets are free and they will give two at a time if you guarantee to use both of them.
Pretty desperate!!
To: Nachum
They can’t even give away tickets to the slimeball’s big acceptance football spike. ‘Couldn’t happen to a more deserving jerk.

So if no other people from anywhere else in the country attended the speech

Flying them in at the last minute would be insanely expensive.

What happens to all those tickets they’d given out? How do they decide who gets in and who gets the shaft?

The point is SHE CAN. Just rent an open field, set up a podium, and issue just one press announcement with just 1 day’s notice - and she’ll have 100,000 people there.
...especially if the announcement includes “bring your own chair”.

And, apparently, the NJ Rats sent something out to their members with Obama’s first name misspelled. Love it!

Why would they pay 3.5 months’ rent for a one-day use?
