GOP=Republican


For the record, the GOP and the Republican Party are the same.

Longtime Republican activist Claudia Rodgers reports that she was turned away from the Raleigh convention center today by security guards.

"Security and reception did not know that GOP and Republican are the same," she wrote in an e-mail. "They turned away attendees to the NCGOP Convention saying that there was no Republican convention today."

GOP, by the way, stands for Grand Old Party.

By the way, we are streaming the NCGOP Convention from Raleigh here.

How'd it go Brent?

I 'watched' for about 30 minutes but after the third time I heard John Mellencamp to nothing more than a preview screen, I logged off.

Had no idea the man that sued McCain for using his tunes was such a big supporter of the NCGOP cause.

Or rather you had such good lawyers for the forthcoming lawsuit.

Read the things that woman writes on the internet. If she's not a delegate, I can't blame them for not allowing her in the building.

...It just keeps getting worse and worse for the highly disorganized group.

A random security guard I get, but NCGOP reception turned away Republicans?
