The Uninvited:Christine O'Donnell booted from event with Sarah Palin...

Tea Party of America organizers have changed their Saturday lineup twice, all within hours and involving just one person. Tuesday morning, the group said former Republican Vermont Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell would speak during its event featuring Sarah Palin at the Indianola Balloon Field. But then a few hours later, organizers announced O'Donnell wouldn't be speaking after all. Founder Ken Crow said as of Monday his thought was, "I said, sure, why not? Bring her on", when asked by O'Donnell's staff whether she could speak.

But Crow claims he later figured out his group didn't have an available speaking slot for O'Donnell, who is traveling the country on a speaking tour for her new book. Crow said his group didn't disinvite O'Donnell for her recent abrupt decision to walk off during a live televised interview with CNN's Piers Morgan. He said the decision also has nothing to do with other bad press O'Donnell has received since her now infamous "I am not a witch" campaign commercial last fall. Rather Crow blames the change on miscommunication between his people and hers. He said, "It's pretty simple. There's a lot of confusion on a lot of people's parts and we and I didn't have our ducks in a row."

9. Even a depiction of alligators squabbling over a scrap of meat
would be 'too cute' for this particular representation.

11. Palin is now going to events that were organized w/o her in order to get an audience.
Saw that posted somewhere else and thought it was a great point. Remember her bus tours, nobody there but the press. And her movie was barely attended.

Hurry Sarah, the money's running out. (and you're looking a little long in the tooth)
