If Juan McCain paid as much attention to the antics of the DNC as he does LaRaza and his own party, he’d be on this one in an instant. The ads practically write themselves.

Back in the day, Reagan would have been stirring the sh*t by showing up in Denver the week before the convention and commiserating with those who got shortchanged by the Democrats’ bouncing checks.

Again, I will pose the question.

How in the heck are the Democrats going to run this country if they can’t run their DNC without it turning into a disaster? I’m like every problem they have I’m sure they will somehow spin this into yet another “right-wing conspiracy”.

The DNC was Hillary Inc. and Obama is George Soros Inc.

Whose got more funds?

It seems as if Obama is getting all the money, not the DNC. That is strange. They can’t even come up with enough funs to pay for their convention and yet we keep hearing how far ahead they are.

The fiscal irresponsibility is stunning. And they want to run the country? Hillary demands Obama pay off her debt? When the DNC promises Denver a boon which ends up a boondoggle? Maybe the smart money guys who made Air America Radio such a stunning success could give the DNC some pointers.
St. Paul/Minneapolis are going to rake in a LOT of money from the Republican convention.
Q: Why did the DNC choose Denver?
A: The Dem 60’s leftovers heard you could get a mile high.

What fun, and all for free!!!

The Democrats teach the country what life would be like under a Democrat administration, starting with Denver, Colorado!!

Promises….broken.

(This is like getting 2-3 GOP commercials paid for by the DNC!!)

I think it has more to do with three factors.

1. The Obama campaign and the DNC are not going to get what they want which is a Nuremburg style party rally. I think they fear that the Clinton delegates will walk out or do “something” that might be embarrassing to the Obamamessiah.

2. They do not have the money to pay for the convention.

3. Probably the most important. They can not trust their moonbat nutroots to behave. I can just see them wearing their Che shirts on the convention floor or their moonbat demonstrators, Code Pinkos, anarchists and the rest of the Democratic freak show get loose out of the “free speech cages” and decide to riot and burn downtown Denver.

why not borrow form BHO’s campaign fund to pay for the extra day.. and give him back an IOU… You know, those are just as good as money..

What a non issue. Nobody watches the first 3 days of the convention anyway. They might as well stick with 4 days of stupidity.

Three days instead of the usual four.
There’s some CHANGE for ya Denver.
Now you can all HOPE someone pays the bill.

Seriously three days is plenty of Hope, Change, Yes we can.

Rinse repeat ad nauseum.

Well, this campaign’s certainly been historically awful, so why not break yet another tradition? I’m not convinced that the entire problem is in the funding. After that Star Spangled “surprise” the other day, they might have decided they risk major embarrassment from their own highly erratic constituency — both inside and outside the hall — so the quicker they can ram the messiah through, declare “unity” and get the heck out of Denver, the better.

Television to stay OFF during both conventions. Nominating conventions make the Olympics look exciting.

Could it be that so much money was spent by Hillary & Obama partisans to defeat the other candidate that now nobody is donating to the DNC? Wouldn’t that be a lovely irony.

Democrat activists can only pretend to be patriotic for so long. Four days of patriotism would be a real chore for them.

Wow – you mean the Dems are having trouble with a grandiose scheme they planned on using other people’s money to pull off, and are going to leave the mess (and bill) laid on people that don’t really want to have a damn thing to do with it?

Go figure.

The Smell Of Desperation Surrounds The Democratic Convention…

According to the Los Angeles Times,the DNC is considering ending the convention one day early. The reasons vary:
