Brack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden made their last campaign rally appearance in a nearly half-empty college arena in Cleveland today.
CBS News' Mark Knoller Tweeted that the Democrat National Committtee says that the 13,600 seat arena had about 8,000 in attendance for the rally held at Cleveland State University's Wolstein Center.
Before the rally, the Associated Press speculated that the crowd was not going to fill the arena.
Obama's (sic) was expected to appear about 2:30 p.m. at Cleveland State University's Wolstein Center. A crowd was trickling in about an hour before the president was expected, raising questions whether the arena, which can hold up to 14,000 people, would be filled.
At 1:30 p.m., only the lower bowl was full, though hundreds of people had crowded onto a portion of the floor before the stage.
Knoller's Tweet:
DNC says there were 8,000 people at the Wolstein Center at Cleveland State Univ. Full capacity is about 13,600.

If the DNC says there were 8,000 people, there weren’t.
Browns are on the bye week so it wasn't because of a Browns Home Game...
Besides during the 08 Campaign Obama had a huge rally in Cleveland during a Browns Home Game and it was SRO at the Obama Rally then...
It looks half-empty to me.
Does anyone see any? At every Bush rally I've been to or watched there were guys in dark suits with folded hands, looking serious and looking through the crowd.
Anyone see any in this photo? I can't.
Cheers!
ROFL!
BTTT
I am LOL
In this case, "sic" stands for "sorry butt."
Funny how the 'unpopular President sells out his appearances within minutes of the tickets going on sale and the 'Messiah' can't fill the cheap seats, even with the ever- amusing VP in tow.
Life is good. :)
Every president has the right and responsibility to showcase the presidential seal of office in any public forum, whether it is partisan politics or not.
Like him or not, Obama is the President of the United States. I am sure that you would want Presidents Reagan, Bush, Nixon or Eisenhower to have the same right. As they did.
It is part of our reverance for the office.
I counted 23 “other than white” and the rest came mainly from a local assisted living facility. Maybe the folks from the assisted living facility thought they were going to a Bingo marathon when they were loaded on to the bus?
I wonder how many were local yokels and how many were shills (paid for by the unions at a non union rate) brought in from maybe Canada?
No, Obama is not coming to DE on Monday. This was another stunt peddled by Christine O’Donnell’s people.
Biden is having a rally in Wilminton on Monday afternoon, which has been scheduled for some time.
Isn’t Wilmington in DE?
And this is in CLEVELAND!
We Ohioans find this delicious!
LOL...they musta made a wrong turn at the jog.
LOL. I am always here.! I’m just busy with our FReep-a-Thon thread and Sarah Palin’s Ping List, plus trying to not miss a minute of TEA PARTY EXPRESS. I feel guilty for not posting my thanks and appreciation to everyone on the DOSE! Thankfully, I am pinged so I get to see the wonderful photos and posts on my ping page.
Your state is going back to mostly RED on Tuesday!
Life *is* good particularly when a lot of the Marxists and anti-Americans are being voted OUT on Tuesday!
God bless all patriot Americans!

It's going to be SO sweet to watch my state get back on track starting Tuesday.
(Actually, I'm not going to watch......I'm going to keep working to make sure it happens!)
