Today Madeline Frank, 16, and her brother Koby, 14, were told they've been disinvited and their tickets are no longer valid because the location of Obama's speech was moved from the 73,000 seat open air Bank of America Stadium to the smaller TimeWarner Cable Arena, which can hold about 21,000. The move was made because of a forecast of rain and thunderstorms.
"I've been looking forward to this for a really long time," Madeline Frank of Charlotte, N.C., said today. "I am just feeling really let down and like bummed. It was kind of my dream to see him speak, so definitely really sad."

The move was made because they couldn't fill a 70,000 seat capacity arena. Moved into a smaller stadium, they have the appearance of "being packed". 21,000 as opposed to 70,000
ReplyDelete"They" can't be truthful about anything!
ReplyDeleteIt's good she found out while shes young, what those people really are.
If she plans on supporting the democrat party this is not the kast time she will be "bummed"
ReplyDeleteThe only volinteers that the local GOP gets are registered Sex Offenders, the rest of the GOP should be ashamed of themselves not helping out to set it up or put up signs around the county. Maybe those Sex Offenders are trying to be good and turn over a new leaf?????
ReplyDeleteNow you're starting to feel the disappointment that the rest of the country has been experiencing with his promises.

ReplyDeleteThe "ONLY" volunteers with the local GOP are registered SO's?
Now see what message the Obama supporters are getting from the convention? Do whatever you have to do including lie to get obama reelected.
she now knows how all the independents who swung to the left 4 years ago feel. "if you are going to support the democrats, be prepared for a lifetime of being 'bummed', Sweetheart!" wake up now and save yourself the trouble!!!
ReplyDeleteVolunteerism is pretty much a thing of the past anymore, hell even the Salvation Army has to hire bell ringers at Christmas time to get people to man their collection buckets. But it is a real shame that here on the shore with so many retirees that not one of them would come forward to help put together the GOP headquarters and they had to rely on 3 or 4 Sex Offenders to do the work. I was at the Grand Opening though, and there they were all of the “Mover and Shakers” of the area pumping hands and congratulating each other on doing nothing to help defeat Obama. Yes, it is so easy to talk the talk, but it takes real effort to step up and volunteer your time and energy to push forth and defeat Obama. I put my time in at the Headquarters every evening I can, but there is plenty of things to do, and so little help. By not helping out at GOP Headquarters they are actually helping out Obama.
ReplyDeleteI hope she and her brother have now learned the ways of the Democrats
ReplyDeleteAnd yet the Democrats are bringing in bus loads of people every day. Young lady, don't expect any promise from a Democrat to hold true.
ReplyDeleteShame on all of the Republicans here in this county, allowing local SO's to do all of the work, it takes away from their time at playgrounds and daycare centers.
ReplyDeleteHope the local Republicans are'nt to lazy to get out and vote in Nov.
