The Real Story Behind That Las Vegas Debate Crowd By Someone Who Was There

[ClarkUSA]

It is as many of us suspected. The NV Democratic Party machine packed the audience with Hillary ringers:

'I am so disappointed with the Democratic Party of Nevada. These folks are not Democrats, they're Hillary supporters.
The audience was an embarrassment and I am ashamed to be from this city. No wonder we elect mob lawyers for Mayor.

The audience was basically divided into two sections. One side was UNLV, the well behaved section and the other
section was the Hillary (oops, I meant the DNC) section. The DNC section is where I was seated and it was filled with
Hillary supporters. The guy next to me said he was for Edwards and lied, because the only person he cheered for was
Hillary. Loud, obnoxious, women were sitting behind me that talked throughout the debate and sneered "trial lawyer"
every time Edwards spoke and called Obama "arrogant". I wanted to turn around and tell them that I guess they didn't
have the nerve to call him "uppity".

The Democratic Party in this State is controlled by two people, Rory Reid, who was its past Chairman and Dina Titus,
who ran for Governor in '06. The same Dina Titus that lost to the most incompetent politician in Nevada politics, in
a year that the Democrats swept into office. This State's Party is in disarray and the '06 election is proof enough for
everyone paying attention. All the people seated around me were given tickets by the Party and the ones I talked with
said that they worked in Dina Titus' campaign for Governor. Rory Reid and Dina Titus are Hillary's biggest backers in
this State and will use their control over this Party to win the caucus for her.

The audience that were around me behaved like they were at a boxing match at Caesar's Palace, cheering for Hillary
and booing her two closest opponents, John Edwards and Barack Obama. Real Democrats don't boo Democrats.
Obama and Edwards looked like they backed off and just sat this one out, since they were not allowed to contrast
themselves against Hillary. The audience members weren't informed, sophisticated Democrats, who could make
their own decisions. They were followers who want to be in the lead. Our lousy Party leaders in this State, who
could not win an election that the Democrats dominated in '06, are leading them.

I came out of the event solid Obama, loving Kucinich and respecting Edwards.'

I predict Hillary will win the Nevada caucuses by hook or by crook -- no matter who wins Iowa and NH.
