I think they figured out that it’s more negative, it looks like they took it down. While they don’t say specifically, I think they are referring to this Obama statue. (Security reasons, sure!):
Giant DNC sand sculpture taken down for security reasons, hotel says
“A temporary sand sculpture was slated to be the “ultimate welcome mat” for visitors during the Democratic National Convention has been scrapped for security reasons.
The sculpture was in the process of being built in front of the Ritz-Carlton and was slated to be unveiled to the public on Friday.”
So much for the creation of Obama's first and only shovel ready job.
