Florida Delegates Face More Bus Problems
They’ll have to make a 15-minute hike to the convention tomorrow.

First they were left without transportation from Palm Harbor’s Innisbrook Resort to the Republican National Convention in downtown Tampa.
Then they were stuck on a bus for hours following the convention Tuesday night – not making it back to the resort until after 3 a.m. Wednesday, according to TBO.
Now, Florida’s Republican delegation is facing a 15-minute hike from the security perimeter to the convention as officials try to straighten out the transportation problems facing the state’s top GOPers.
"The (Republican National Committee) needs to fix this bus problem … We need to take care of our delegates," TBO quoted Adam Putnam, Florida’s agriculture commissioner as saying. “It was a complete breakdown.”
According to TBO, the Republican Party of Florida is stepping in to remedy the problem. It will be using its own bus system to transport Florida delegates to and from the convention. The Florida GOP buses, however, don’t have security clearance. That means delegates and guests will have to walk from the perimeter to the convention, TBO said.
Do you think the Florida Delegation’s transportation woes are just a glitch? Do you think something else is going on? What do you think about Florida's delegates having to walk to the event? Let us know in the comments section.

LMAO, go Obama! I don't know how your doing all this but Kudos :)
Another funny one: 30-40 million spent on security, (4000+ police officers, CIA, secret service, covert heqadquarters, cameras surveliance, drones, no fly zones, etc) and a only a few hundred peaceful protesters show up. Talk about being all dressed up with no place to go. Guess keeping the delegates bus out is all they can find to do, lol :)

Republicans are providing a huge economic boost to Florida. This is the Off-season and a lot of businesses are reaping the benefits (both democrats and republican).

If it's an intended slight to the FL Delegates - how very, very trite and immature - not traits I want to put into positions of power! If it's unintended - it shows a lack of management and organizational ability - also not what I want in the government offices!

It's a ploy used by both political parties, because all these things are, gloried pep rallies.

Why are females and hispanics going over to the conservative ideology? Simple, they are tired of living off of the government and entitlement checks and skimping all the time and then vote for a democrat to start the process all over again.

Latino unemployment rate is 11%, imagine that 11%. 8% is bad enough but 11% is horrible. Obama just has not delivered to the Latino community.

Keep in mind, FL delegates were not the only ones to get scr...uh, messed with. Some had credentials revoked, others were blocked and then there was Boehner in his scripted moment of taking a vote saying the 'yays' had it. There is video of his teleprompter telling him so, I didn't pull that out of my hat. It's very clear the party is disintegrating into several factions, Tea Party, Neo Cons and those few brave souls that dare to try to tread the center. No doubt there will be mess ups this week in Charlotte- what big event doesn't have a few? People are disgusted, but what can ya do? It would really help if folks spent a little time doing real research, watching what really happens rather than following the sound bites. The $ is on the sound bites, btw. Ever wonder why we haven't had a viable 3rd party since Perot? Why do the once lauded 'grass roots' groups get obviously ignored? George Romney warned Barry Goldwater and the GOP against extremism. I bet he is spinning today. http://www.bostonglobe.com/news/nation/2012/08/25/views-political-evolution-mitt-romney-day-that-george-romney-declared-his-candidacy-for-governor-mitt-was-there-absorbing-his-father/A9eYm7uWdzyeyawGLBu3LL/story.html
