On C-Span 8:38 amET: Confirmation Bush vetts attendance to rallies!

[LittleApple81]

USA today "journalist" traveling with Bush campaign was asked if the 10,000 people showing up for the Michigan rally were pre-selected. He hesitated and then said that the Repug party had distributed the tickets but "THAT ANYBODY WHO WANTED TO ATTEND HE COULD GET IN!" These stupid journalists are the worse traitors our country has.

1. This is confirmation of what we have talking about in DU.

2. Kerry makes people have tickets too

Both candidates would be fools not to. In this day and age security demands as much. The question is how does one get a ticket.

4. Are you sure?

Did he vet the hecklers he's had? Did the Democratic Party give them tickets?

5. Both the Ohio rallies

claimed to require tickets. I live reasonably close to both Youngstown and Cleveland so I was offered them in both cases. One offer was from Fingerhut's campaign and the other from Cleveland Stonewall Democrats. Since I didn't attend due to work, I have no idea the extent to which those claims wound up being true or how easy it would have been to fake a ticket.

On edit I will check when I get home to see if I still have either email. I can't access my email from here due to not having set up remote access.
