1. I was referring to the *upcoming* party on Election Day, not the convention.
2. I think it is a REAL issue when one candidate is boasting a platform of change yet does 'what everyone else' has done. Obama broke a campaign promise before he even got elected when he opted out of public funding. That shows me exactly how much (or little) things will change if he is elecetd. And, I am sorry, in the age of 'early voting' there is no excuse for anyone not to vote. If someone does not cast a vote, it is from their own ignorance or lack of initiative. I am sick of hearing about people who could not get out to vote. Of course we usually hear about it after the election rather than before so something can be done about it.
