Palin for Profit? Not so much.
"Slow ticket sales have bumped Sarah Palin's appearance next week in Jacksonville, FL to a smaller venue.

"An Evening of Hope with Sarah Palin" was moved from the 2,936-seat Moran Theatre to the 609-seat Terry Theatre."

I'm shocked, I tell you...shocked!

9. And now she's learning supply and demand in a capitalist economy
Obviously $50 is more than the majority will spend on her stupid regurgitated talking points.

11. An evening seeing Sarah closeup - $100., "Poor Folks" seats in the nosebleed section - $50.,
not enough morans to fill the Moran Theatre...priceless.

22. "We would rather have a packed theater than a theater that's not so packed."
:rofl:
Spoken like a true moran. Probably moved on Palin's order. Mama grizzly doesn't want to appear to be losing her faithful. You betcha.

23. I'm betting the media will report
her appearance as "in front of a packed house"....If they do, I might just be forced to write a letter to the editor of Times Union reminding the morans of the change in venue. Idiots!
