l****z 发帖数: 29846 | 1 A mix-up is bound to occur when you get two presidential candidates and the
trappings of their entourages in the same spot. And that’s precisely what
happened when the White House press pool rushed to their vehicle in
President Barack Obama’s motorcade after the conclusion of his debate with
Republican Mitt Romney.
“In an amusing moment, poolers were sitting in the Press One van outside
the debate hall and the driver said ‘I think that Romney did real good,’”
the AFP’s Stephen Collinson wrote in a pool report. “There was a moment
of baffled silence,” he added, before the White House stenographer “put
two and two together and said, ‘guys, we are in the Romney van.’”
“Blind panic then ensued as we piled out the van and sprinted towards the
correct motorcade, which was parked right in front of Romney’s,” the pool
report concluded.
Mr. Obama’s motorcade, with his press corps in tow, was rolling from the
University of Denver soon after. |
