Prresident Obama's Visit To Vegas Wrap Up

President Obama's visit to Las Vegas has to be determined to be a bust.
First, the mayor of Las Vegas boycotted Obama's visit. Apparently, a lot of other people did as well. His stop at Green Valley High School for his town hall/campaign speech drew only 1800 people. That doesn't come close to capacity for their gymnasium. Then Obama spoke at City Center to supporters and watching the newscasts, one could see numerous empty seats in front of Obama. If you are a PR person, you never want to have empty seats in front of your speaker especially if television cameras are there.
Then Obama held a campaign fundraiser at the Owner of the Palms Hotel and Casino. No reports of who were there or the number. Their goal was $1 million. I don't know if they got it or not, but that number is pathetically low for a sitting president, especially for a so-called popular president.
Obama's visit did cost helicopter and airplane tour operators and it's employees hundreds of thousands of dollars.
On the bright side, Obama brought a welfare package for homeowners facing foreclosure. People who, for whatever reason, could not pay the contracted amount of money for their homes. Cost to you and me, $1,500,000,000.
And then at the end, the Air Force 1 pilots showboat on their way out of McCarren by almost crashing AF1 at the end of the runway, clearing the fence on LV Blvd by only 50 feet or so.
I don't think Obama will be coming back any time soon and Harry Reid probably will be better off for it, as well as Las Vegas.
