Nobama (tickets, that is)

Aw, shit:

Dear John --

We've been amazed by the number of people expressing interest in attending Barack's acceptance speech on the final night of the Democratic National Convention here in Colorado.

Unfortunately--

Shit, shit, shit.

--there are only a certain number of seats in the stadium, and we cannot fulfill every Coloradan's request to attend the event.

I didn't ask you to fulfill every Coloradinian's request, I asked you to fulfill mine.

Due to the high demand for Community Credentials, you have been placed on a wait list.

We may be distributing more Community Credentials in the coming days, but we cannot guarantee that you will receive a credential. We will update you as we approach the beginning of the convention.

Don't call us, and so on. And they still try to get some work out of me:

Barack's acceptance of the nomination will be a truly historic moment, and there is another way you can make sure that you enjoy it.

Sign up to host or attend a Convention Watch Party on Thursday, August 28th.

All across Colorado, people like you will be hosting Convention Watch Parties to gather with fellow supporters, watch convention events, and talk about the best ways to build this movement for change in Colorado.

Learn more about hosting or attending a Convention Watch Party and other ways to get involved [website address].

Thanks,
