No offense, Gina, seriously, but if that surprised you, I think that you may not be looking at things with open eyes, or else are using poor sources of information. From the quality of things that I have seen you write, I'm surprised that you were surprised.
</font>[/QUOTE]I'm not exactly sure of what you're trying to say. I was in the area, and spoke with the volunteers in the Republican Headquarters coordinating the whole thing on the day before his arrival and minutes before he arrived, and talked to the people going in as they stood in line. Then the next day the newspaper also published the method that was used to choose who would be there.
So I know my information on how they were picked was accurate.
It suprises me simply because it seemed like a bad choice to make this close to an election. I'm not a big fan of his, but still have thought the man was the type to have the guts and courage to face most issues, and the brains to know when to use that to his advantage. Maybe I don't have my eyes open enough!
Whatever the case, I've decided I'm not that much into all this stuff anymore. I'm disappointed in everyone and everything to do with government, so I'll stay out of it all. It's nothing but lies and corruption and nobody has the desire to change it, not even the ones who should, so it's a waste of time to be involved.
