Chels....did you want a ride? Anyone else....although we may not be let in...especially wearing our Obama T shirts!!

[Guest]

This doesn't surprise me. I bet she had a special invitation by our developer or a hefty enough contribution that she feels a payback is in order.

[Guest]

WOW THIS IS AWESOME!

I will certainly be there!

I'll be sure to have tomatoes ready if Barrack the chosen ever shows up.:1rotfl:

Eddie, get out your tuxedo boxers for Sunday! LOL :coolsmiley:

Who knows? I always love a good comedy routine! I'll be the one with the beehive hairdo, glasses, and "Hockey Mom" button on. Oh wait :22yikes: that's HER! Ahh, hope it's a brisk sunny day with the smell of moose in the air! :MOJE_whot:

I'll be there. It will be great to see a women who made it on her own and not her husband's coattails.

[Guest]

Sally Jo, :agree:

I'll be there with lots of cheering!! :a040:

Its those kinds of statements about women that
I heard back in the 60's when I was trying to
build a career for myself.
Condescending :crap2: remarks about a woman trying to make it on her own.

How nice to have Gov. Palin visit the great people of Florida. Wish I were down there....I would be in attendance.

[Guest]

"the distribution and requirements for tickets" means that you have to vow that you will vote Republican. It is my understanding that Democrats are not welcome to hear her speak. Same as George Bush rallies of the past.

I do not know how they could tell if you are a Republican or a Democrat when getting a ticket at the Villages Lake Sumter Ticket Office. The article is a little vague about where you get the tickets on Friday though??

It just looks like a first come, first served event and the people most excited to see Palin and get quickly in line for the tickets will be Republicans.

"Those attending the event must have tickets. A limited number of tickets are available. Tickets are free and will be available from 9 a.m. to noon Friday at Lake Sumter Landing Market Square. Tickets then will be available from noon to 6 p.m. Friday at Republican Headquarters, 1037 Canal St., at Lake Sumter Landing. Any remaining tickets will be available all day Saturday at Republican Headquarters. The distribution and requirement for tickets is similar to the system used in 2004 when President Bush visited."

Quote from Villages Daily Sun linked article.

[Guest]

Palin will come and deliver a good, rote speech. Men will salivate and comment about what a "babe" she is. Women will.... well, I don't understand women supporting her but, they'll smile and swoon a little, too. People will clap and jump up and down. Flags will wave. Signs will be held aloft. Yippee. "She's prettier in real life than on t.v.." The happy paper will say there were 3500+ people there, while other papers say 1000. The font size will be ginormous. Bush, the do-over. I get it.
Who will pay for the police security? Who will pay for the set-up and break-down? OUR amenity fees?
If Joe Biden wants to come will he be afforded the same location and "ticket security" that Palin is given?

[Guest]

It is difficult, but try to ignore the school yard sniping...

[Guest]

YOU WON"T GET IN UNLESS YOU ARE A REGISTER REPUBLICAN...Just like when Bush came...

SARAH IS THE KIND OF A WOMEN THAT REAL MEN LOVE.:2excited::pepper2:

You're the girl with the plan. I will be there cheering you on.

The Village Sun has said the visit is cancelled due to weather concerns.

[Guest]

Just spoke with the newspaper and her trip has been cancelled for Sunday due to the forecast of a tropical storm. :sad:

[Guest]

Bummer it is cancelled.......but maybe it will be rescheduled when we're down there between 10/6 and 11/1.....(wishful thinking.....)

I would so be there.....I'm a big Sarah fan......

Frank D.

[Guest]

Plus Sumter and Ocala Sheriffs depart will not spend their short budgets to help the secret service " Star Banner Today"

[Guest]

I wonder what the real reason is that she cancelled. According to the National Hurricane Center there are no storms predicted for any time soon.

[Guest]

My wife just called me to say Palin is NOT coming to TV afterall. "Heard it on the radio"... I didn't ask her which station.

MinnieM

Sarah's not coming??? :sad: Now what will I do with all of these tomatoes?

I can think of a host of reasons she's not coming.

1. She thought she could hunt and they hid the buffalo.
2. She can't remember the speech she's given at least 50 times.
3. She doesn't know where Florida is.
4. She thought Florida was a foreign country that could boost her Foreign
Policy Resume. (too bad, so sad.)
5. She's too busy watching Russia from her backyard.
6. Her beehive attacked her.
7. She's holding out for more money from the Morse's.
8. McCain is having her Crazy Glued to his arm.
9. She found out that the "Fundamentals and Foundation" McCain was
talking about is not her push-up bra.
10. They're opening up a new crystal meth lab in Wasilla and she has to
be there for the ribbon cutting.

Sigh. She's a busy, busy lady!

Last fall several Republican candidates visited The Villages. In January I did go see John McCain. This said, I will never understand why Democrat candidates are not invited here to speak. I would love to hear and see Obama and Biden, however with less than two months until the election I doubt this will happen.

[Guest]

The Morse's are staunch Republicans. The Dems can't even get a room at one of the Rec Centers, much less be allowed to speak in the Town Squares.

Ooops, I thought this was America. :undecided:

TV doesn't invite these candidates to come here. It's arranged thru the state and local party organizations. During primary season, the Dems boycotted Florida, avoiding it almost as if it were Fox News. Evidently the local Democrat group (?) is incapable of organizing anything bigger than a coffee klatch at the cajun restaurant. They will, of course, blame their failures on THE DEVELOPER.

[Guest]

Just to clarify, I love my husband, the developer and you! In spite of all of you all being Republicans! :laugh:

Thanks Muncle. Ah, a voice of reason. How refreshing.

I hope Sarah doesn't visit TV until I get there. I'm bringing ear muffs and a blindfold for my dear friend Chels. And handcuffs so she can't throw her rotten tomatoes.

I'd also love to see Obama, Biden or McCain. I admire them all, it is a thankless task to run for political office. You need lots of tenacity and a thick skin to handle all the criticism that goes with the political race.

[Guest]

Unfortunately or not, depending on your view, the TV radio station is broadcasting (today) that she is not going to be coming to TV after-all.
:smiley:or :( depending on your side of the asile...

I heard a rumor from a Democratic campaign worker that one of the big four could be coming to the Villages area. That is to Ocala. The big four are Obama, Biden, and the 2 Clintons.

For whom would the Clintons be campaigning?

[Guest]

The trip was cancelled because of weather, it is too hot here to permit a snow job.

[Guest]

according to this evening news her trip here has been cancelled,
get this,cancelled account of rthe weather

[Guest]

She's not hunting buffalo, Not once did she ask for any address's.......

[Guest]

.... Even though some of the reactions to Gov. Palin's visit are just that, I'm sure going to be there. I would count it a privilege. If I felt as though I should wear an Obama T-shirt, I would probably do the polite thing and stay home.

I don't consider myself an old fogey, just a respectful adult.

[Guest]

Well, if there is a rally of any kind by any of the candidates, it will be important for the planners to remember that there is no place at the gazebos at Lake Sumter Landing or Spanish Springs to be able to be in front of the audience and have a telepromter plugged in at the same time....

[Guest]

They are probably huddling to do damage control.

[Guest]

The paper today says she IS indeed coming....apparently it was suppose to rain...but now it should be fine....

I guess I would imagine she won't have too many people in attendance...they are just having it at the square....I bet if Obama were ALLOWED to come then we would be at the Polo Field!!

[Guest]

Conn8757,

I've read that too and it makes me wonder what's wrong with the world in which we live. Maybe Palin's personal hygiene products in the garbage will be the next thing through which these bottom feeders snoop, it's disgusting! No wonder John McCain doesn't use a computer, looks like all of us that do use one are stupid. And if Palin's email is be hacked maybe Obamas' or Michelles' email or yours and mine is next.

I'm also put off by the references of throwing tomatoes at the political candidates made in this forum. These candidates, whether we agree with their policies or not, are running to serve US and our country and at least deserve basic repect. I'm sure the comments were made in jest but any reference to physical attack of any of the candidates makes me very nervous. There are people who walk a very thin line in regards to sanity and God forbid they would take any of these references a step further and pick up a gun. We've lived that in this country and those were our worst days!

[Guest]

When Bush was here there was a stage set up over by the radio station area. Trees were temprarily removed and bleachers set up for VIP's. The gazebo was not used that day.
When there was a rally at SS with Lee Greenwood there were Democrats hanging around with signs. When interviewed they said they wanted to see and hear Lee Greenwood but did not want anyone to think they were Republicans.

[Guest]

Just to clarify, I love my husband, the developer and you! In spite of all of you all being Republicans! :laugh:

Chelsea,
Your husband is a republican?? WOW.....that is interesting. Is that a subject you just do not discuss, or is it a source of some lively conversations in your home?

I can see it now, both of you fighting over the television, switching from Fox news to MSNBC and back....:laugh:

It's nice when we have different views and still all play nice in the same sandbox.

I am surprised then they would go through all that trouble...why not just use the polo fields...there everyone could sit on their golf carts and listen.....makes more sense and much less work for TV's....

IMHO...
In any case thanks for sharing the information....

:agree: Peachie, nicely said, thank you.

[Guest]

"also put off by the references of throwing tomatoes at the political candidates reference to physical attack of any of the candidates makes me very nervous."

Any threats of this type are now treated 'very seriously.' It would be very unwise for anyone to indicate that they may bring possible harm or upset to any political figure. It isn't the sixties anymore.

Today, the Villages Daily Sun says she is coming to LSS on Sunday.

I am thinking that it was not a "threat" just something said in jest....while I can understand Peachie's sentiments and agree that these are scary times....I would imagine that here on TOTV a tomato throwing reference was just a joke...

This is after all TOTV....and there are a lot of silly people here....

[Guest]

:agree: Peachie, nicely said, thank you.

OK, now, I wasn't really going to throw tomatoes! Did you think I was? Hmmm. You've got to be kidding. I wouldn't walk across the street to see her, much less go into the town square.

As far as respect goes, that's not going to happen. I don't respect this woman for accepting a position she's clearly not equipped for. And I clearly don't respect her stands on anything. Every time she opens her mouth (even yesterday) she inserts her foot!

Lighten up folks!

[Guest]

If you can't respect Palin for accepting a job she is not qualified for, how can you respect Obama for running for President? He has fewer qualifications then she does??

[Guest]

The polo field is out for Sunday because there are polo matches.

I know I am suppose to behave and stick to the subject and not make any nasty comments....but the thoughts going through my head right now are VERY bad....like with if she mistakes the horses for Moose...etc...etc...etc....

Ok I will stop....better turn off the computer! Naughty Naughty Computer!!


:Screen_of_Death: LOL

[Guest]

Cassie - I thought about it. In fact, I looked on Photobucket to see if I could find a moose!!

That in no way indicates my candidate choice. Just thought it would be a hoot!!

I grew up with sarcasm...............
It's something I will forever dislike..................
Something said sarcastically is the speakers true feelings hidden behind "sarcasm"
Once again it is always the same ones on TOTV

[Guest]

Jav...as you can see from both my posting and Islands posting...we both thought it was funny...AND we are on two opposite sides of this presidential race...and once in a while we need a little humor in here...I am sorry you do not like sarcasm...some of us can really get sarcastic at times....but that is why this wonderful world and website is so great...because we are all different.

I am sorry YOU felt the way you did...it was not intentionally meant to upset you.

[Guest]

:agree:

What's life without laughter? Sorry about your misinterpretation

[Guest]

I am going to go see Sarah Palin for 2 reasons...1)She is in this election and 2)coming to my hometown.

I come from NH where ,early on in the process, the candidates for the presidency are a dime a dozen and you can sit in someone's living room with them.Now that I live here in TV I haven't had that opportunity. I am delighted to have the chance to size up Sarah. I would attend a rally for McCain, Obama and Biden if given the opportunity. To me it is all part of the process, I need to see them for real, so much more informative than what the pundits tell me or the photographers and journalists present.

I have always been a registered Independant until moving to FL where you have to declare a party. I honestly haven't decided who I will vote for. I read a statistic that a large number of woman voters do not actually decide until they vote...that's me. So if Sarah wants my vote she needs to impress me on Sunday.
JMHO:undecided:

Frank D.

Hahaha, Frank. Yes! We do have some lively debates, many very humorous. But, you see my husband and friends understand me. They know that I never mean anything personally. I find that humor takes the edge off of things. How the reader wants to perceive it, is their problem.

Besides my husband, all of my true friends tend not to be insecure people that have problems with a little good humored jabbing. I'm really not of the mind set that "everyone must agree with everyone" it's silly and unrealistic. If I were to lose a "friend" over a political position, then they were not a true friend to begin with. I simply weed out these people.

My husband has a very dry sense of humor, so our debates can actually get very funny and we just fall down laughing and hug each other. I wouldn't have married him if he couldn't stand up to me. I don't like mealy mouthed people! :)

Because facts don't matter usualy when it comes to Democrats. And if I am not mistaken from a previous post she is voting for him "to help make him part of history as the first black president."

Real good reasons.

[Guest]

I hear that she is staying at the Waterfront.

I haven't spent tons of time researching it, but I read somewhere that this was a poor reason...that Mr. Obama is more middle eastern then black.....200 years ago his relatives were more slave traders then slaves......but either way, it is a poor reason. I doubt if any of us going for a job would want to have it be decided by our relatives 200 years ago.

I find it disterbing that many who I know are voting for Mr. Obama are doing so out of frustration with Bush.......to that thinking I respond....President Bush is not running this year.....he is done in a few months.

Back to Sarah....she's pro-life, pro-gun, has executive experience, is tough, she is against the cronyism, walks what she talks, she is a pilot, she is not from Washington DC, etc,etc.....I was bummed when Ron Paul dropped out early.....but now with Sarah, there is a bit of hope again.

The most they could dig up on her...... Trooper-gate?? That guy is a whack job that should be fired!

Boy, I wish I was down there to see her.....oh well. Enjoy!!

I never said that I was voting for Obama because he would be the first black President. I'm voting for Obama because I believe in him and like his stands on the issues. If you're going to talk about me, at least get it right! :undecided:

Chelsea,
I know you were not referring to me, but just to make sure, I was not saying you said that......I do not know who the person was referring to.....I was just stating my opinion that the reason would, IMHO, be a foolish reason by itself.

I know we are of different opinions politically, but I try to get along with all.

I've learned long ago that in all of the great debates, they are what they are simply because credible arguments can be made on each side. If they were not that way, none of the issues would be an issue for very long.
