Barack Obama is deliberately choosing to cloister himself in one of these fortress-like buildings cutoff from the public on Election Night this year...which is a far cry from the Grant Park victory party he planned in 2008 in the heart of Chicago where thousands were encouraged to worship him like it was a triumphant cult rally
(http://hillbuzz.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/obama-grant-park.jpg?cda6c1)
If you remember, the 2008 Obama victory party was held in Grant Park, where the Obama cult declared him to be a living god-king who would lower the oceans, patch the whole ozone, and deliver hope and change and unicorns to everyone. Nothing so grandiose and extravagant is being planned for November 6th, 2012...for good reason
I’ve suspected for some time that Obama was going to plan for a concession speech on November 6th, but last night final confirmation arrived in the form of leaked news that the Obama election night event is being staged in private McCormick Place, not a big public setting like Grant Park.
Let me put this as clearly as I can because it’s crucial: if Democrats really thought Barack Obama was going to be reelected, then they would have planned a massive rally in Grant Park again; the fact this is not happening is proof that, despite what you hear coming out of the Ministry of Truth that is the national media, the Democrats really do not expect Obama to win this election. Campaign operatives in Chicago are, thus, making appropriate preparations for his imminent defeat.
Let me explain a few things about McCormick Place that you could intimate from the photo above:
* it’s separated from the City by highways and is hard to reach by anyone traveling on foot from the various “El†trains that service Chicago…which indicates this event is not intended for throngs of Obama supporters.
* there are no buses that readily service McCormick Place like they do Grant Park…so once again, this event is not being planned for the public to come and celebrate with Obama.
* McCormick Place is completely indoors and is a venue that Democrats can easily control in terms of the camera angles and stagecraft of the event…which is a big deal because losing campaigns choose small, isolated places to hold concession speeches while winning candidates are feted on election night in, well, places like Grant Park.
I think this might be a way to avoid riots or other public disturbances from the Obama cult here in Chicago…because if they aren’t encouraged to assemble anywhere here on November 6th, then they won’t be assembled and ready to riot. That might have happened if they had the event at a hotel in the Loop…and it would have definitely have happened if they did a big Grant Park event.
But McCormick Place diffuses all this. It’s isolated, remote, and pedestrian-unfriendly.
The perfect place to discourage disappointed supporters from gathering with an easy escape route for Barack and Michelle to their Chicago home when it’s announced he will no longer be the president.

Interesting to say the least.

Hey DUmmie lurkers. It also means he's not going to challenge the results in court.
Kinda deflates the whole "stolen election" thing you've got going, don't it?
You know he's gonna lose. You've known all along.
And there is no West Wing in the works to give you comfort and solace. Whatever will you do?

Good stuff, Bally, but it looks like it belongs in the Election forum, not the DUmpster.

No, the DUmmies need to see this and I don't think they visit all the forums due to vanity.

Whatevs. I'd rather see the site run for us, not for them.

True. Have to agree. It's been up long enough to tweak the DUmp.
Maybe ask Bally if you could move it.

Hillbuzz has a good and different perspective on all things 0bama. The post on Hillary screwing 0bama the night before the debate was genius, mostly because it was my thinking too.

If he couldn't fill a stadium, there is no way he will fill that park again. His speech will probably only be in front of maybe a hand full of people.

Exactly! they're so insulated over there.

I have no problem with the Mods deciding what forum it's best in.

You wouldn't be the first person to put a thread in the wrong forum. ::)
There will probably be some housecleaning after the election.

LOL, I admit I put it here purposely to annoy the left.

Still happy it was thrown up.
I'm sure it caused a bit of turmoil. :cheersmate:

Not a problem. My complaint is with people that abuse the Breaking News forum. Hello? It shows up on the front page of the forum. Don't post stupid stuff.

I just visited the "Election 2012" forum.
If I ever looked at it before, I don't remember it.
Appears to be about as lively as Old Elm Tree or Old DU.

Oh! I think I only posted in Breaking News a few times, what I think is important may not be really important at all.

You tweaked them. That's good enough for me. :rotf:
I hope somebody is watching page visits.
Might be just as interesting.

I shouldn't be bitchy like that but after 4 years of listening to their crap I just need to annoy them sometimes.

I lost the link (still looking), but Beckel is basically throwing in the towel after the latest Gallup numbers. I thought it was on Breitbart.......
EDIT:
Found it:
Beckel says: "It's lost." (http://www.breitbart.com/Breitbart-TV/2012/10/18/Beckel-It-Is-Over)
on Breitbart.

I had just found hillbuzz yesterday. I printed out that same article for my dad, because he is an Eeyore, as the blogger defines it.

I wouldnt call it good it accuses the left of slandering republicans and then does the same to Obama.
heres and excerpt from the reuters article about Obama's selection
McCormick Place, which was the principal site of a NATO conference in May, is the largest exhibition and meeting facility in North America
hardly the small and intimate place hillbuzz is making it out to be. Obama is sure he is going to win, hes going to be one of the very few shocked on election night, by now even the most loyal dems know defeat is coming

Some mood music for the Dems . . .
