The above picture was taken just before Biden was set to speak by CBS News Rodney Hawkins who says the NAACP is blaming the lack of attendance on the rain. Anyone buying that excuse?

Personally, I can't understand why more people don't want to hear plugs make a total ass of himself ... live and in person!

NAACP is blaming the lack of attendance on the rain. That's racist. Like saying blacks don't learn to swim.

If he was handing out Obama’s stash, all seats would be filled.

If the rain kept the NAALCP loyalists away then I hope it pours on election day.

It would be more gratifying to know he was dampening the event even further in front of a packed house. With him, the larger the audience, the bigger the toddies and the more excruciating the blunders.

Curious - what were the “liberal” sounding elements from yesterday’s speech?

If it rains on election day and obama loses, they’ll blame the rain AND blame Bush for making it rain.

the NAACP is blaming the lack of attendance on the rain. Mis-reported.
The lack of attendance was due to the rein.

It’s all about poverty.
If black people can’t afford photo IDs, how can they afford umbrellas or raincoats?
