No joy for Huggy Bear
President Bush was supposed to be headlining at a planned fundraiser for John McCain this coming Tuesday at the Phoenix Convention Center in Phoenix, Arizona. The venue had to be scrapped, but not merely because they couldn’t sell enough tickets to fill the space.
Sources familiar with the situation said the Bush-McCain event was not selling enough tickets to fill the Convention Center space, and that there were concerns about more anti-war protesters showing up outside the venue than attending the fundraiser inside.
Another source said there were concerns about the media covering the event.
I almost couldn’t stop laughing long enough to write this post. You couldn’t make this up, lol!
Poor ticket sales, expected protests scuttle Bush-McCain fundraiser at Phoenix Convention Center
