Charlotte, North Carolina - Democrats are poised to avoid the danger of President Barack Obama accepting his party’s nomination before a partially-empty stadium by shifting his speech to an indoor arena and citing ‘severe weather’. The Obama campaign have been working desperately to ensure that the 74,000-seater Bank of America stadium in Charlotte would be filled. Buses for students from across North Carolina and even members of black churches in neighboring South Carolina have been arranged. Images of rows of empty seats at the stadium, home of the Carolina Panthers, as Obama speaks on Thursday night would be politically disastrous

“””Buses for students””””..... Wouldn’t it be cheaper to GO TO THEM?
“They may just cram them all into a few sections and instruct the television crews not to show wide angle views.”
No matter what angles they try, empty chairs would be tweeted before the night gets started. Everyone would know.
Just heard Rush say obama is saying he’ll get misty as michelle speaks. More likely he’s already crying from the reality that he’s not who he thought he was.
Those Dems .... just can’t stay out of trouble. The CA Dem Chair just took off for home and a “pre-scheduled root canal” after inserting foot in mouth by comparing Ryan to Goebbels ..... as Ed M. said, maybe a “root canal is an effective way to get one’s foot out of one’s mouth”.
...such as "gentlemen's clubs," bathhouses and homeless shelters.
Oh...but now it might be a “safety issue.”
When rain isn’t forcasted, and they can’t fill the seats, it has become a safety issue. OMG! lol
L!They should just photoshop it and control camera placement, like they do in China and North Korea.
Now there are 54,000 very disappointed people! Will they all get bussed back, or will DNC pipe the ceremonies into their Motel-6 rooms?
So Obama really cannot change the weather? I am stuned!
My concern is that the LSM will blame Rove and his secret weather machine for raining on Obama’s parade.
What is the history on that photo? I have seen it a few times here but no clue as to the story.
Why doesn’t he just issue an Executive Order REQUIRING the stadium be filled?
You forgot your sarcasm tag. ODungBeetula can’t draw flies now.
Maybe Bank of America didn't like it when he changed their stadium name. lol
Where are they goiing to put the sand statue?
Which is why someone ought to start a widespread Internet rumor about free hickory-smoked BBQ lunch come rain or come shine for the first 25,000 people to show up at Time Warner Cable Arena this Thursday, September 6th.
Meet Barack and Michelle Obama! See Barack's acceptance speech on the big screen jumbo-tron!
