As heard on CNN by DNC Convention Producer Don Mischer:

Go balloons, I don’t see anything happening. Go balloons!

Go balloons, go balloons!

Standby confetti

Keep coming balloons. More balloons. Bring ‘em. Balloons, balloons, balloons. Want balloons. Tons of ‘em. Bring ‘em down. Let ‘em all come.

No confetti. No confetti yet. No confetti.

All right. Go balloons, go balloons. We need balloons.

All balloons! All balloons should be going. Come on guys, let’s move it. Jesus.

We need more balloons.

I want all balloons to go. God. [inaudible] Go confetti. Go confetti. Go confetti.

I want more balloons.

What’s happening to the balloons? We need more balloons. We need all of them coming down.

Go balloons. Balloons. What’s happening balloons? There’s not enough coming down. All balloons. Where the hell? There’s nothing falling. What the f@#$ are you guys doing up there?

We want more balloons coming down. More balloons, more balloons.

I think all the hot air generated on the stage was keeping the balloons from falling.
