Republican presidential candidate John McCain is scheduled to give a speech today in Denver, and librarian Carol Kreck plans to be there with her own message.
Kreck, a former reporter for The Denver Post, was cited for trespassing July 7 during a McCain town-hall meeting after she was asked to leave the grounds of the Denver Performing Arts Complex because she was holding a “McCain = Bush” sign.
The Arizona senator is scheduled to address the American GI Forum convention at the Grand Hyatt Denver hotel at 17th Avenue and Welton Street this morning. McCain then will head to Aspen for a meeting with the Dalai Lama, who is attending a symposium on Tibetan culture.
Kreck says she and other protesters will be demonstrating outside the Grand Hyatt at 10 a.m.
Kreck said that her infamous sign was collected by her protest group and that if they want her to carry it again, she’d be happy to.
On Thursday, Kreck said the Denver city attorney’s office has advised her that it will not drop the case against her, and Kreck said she is ready to go to trial.
