Team Obama promises it will fill every one of the seats in Charlotte’s mammoth football stadium Thursday night when President Obama closes the Democratic National Convention with a speech accepting his party’s nomination.
For weeks, Democrats have been concerned about filling Bank of America Stadium, home to the NFL’s Carolina Panthers. They feared a devastating image of an enthusiasm gap if Obama spoke to empty upper decks at the venue.
But the Obama campaign says it’s got it covered, and that all 73,778 of the stadium’s seats will be spoken for. The campaign also insists this success will showcase a ground operation that will help Obama win North Carolina for a second cycle in a row this November.
“We’re confident we’ll be full,” Jen Psaki, the traveling Obama press secretary, told The Hill late last week. “We have a great ground operation in North Carolina and we’ve registered more voters than any other state.

BS, for sure.
He probably threatened to cut of their food stamps for a month if they did not show up.
They're making the cardboard cutouts as I write.
Reckon the Cherokee have a rain dance of good utility?
Nah. The seats will all be filled with stuffed Pedo-bears. Each attendee will get one to give to their children and the rest of the seats...
Wave after wave of Pedo-bears! The new emblem of the party!
Is it an outdoor stadium? If so, I’ll pray for a hard, hard rain.
There’s a chance of afternoon and evening thunderstorms all this week here in the Charlotte area. I too am praying for a gullywasher to really hammer the place for a couple hours before his speech is about to start. Then let up for about 30-45 minutes to entice the true believers into their seats but leave the stadium half-empty...then unload again right as his speech starts.

The media will have been thoroughly briefed on using no camera angles that show empty seats. Nothing, absolutely nothing, coming from the MSM can be believed.
I have no doubt that obama will fill that stadium. And then he will brag about all the new jobs he just created.
How much do you suppose it’s gonna cost him to bribe enough people to fill that stadium anyway?
Well, exactly. The joke is that, at a union rally, show them the beer and they will just follow it on to the bus. Pretty simple.

Losing confidence? Getting nervous? Has the hypnotic trance worn off and you can't make it work again?
Don't fear! The unions WILL get 'er done! With all the money you funneled to them, they will come through.
Well, they already made plans to round up all the homeless for the convention, I guess if they hose them off and nuke them with deodorant they can use them to fill the top bleachers. Especially if they park beer and pot up there first.

Or muddled asses, in this case...
Breaking!!!!...early pics of the Obama delegates/supporters arriving for early seating. By all indications Obama will blow the capacity crowd away...Note: none of the supporters were available for comment.
I have no doubt that the Dems will move heaven and earth to make it happen. It is a phony test that is just a PR stunt to prove Obama is as popular as ever and that he still has the magic of 2008. It really is irrelevant, but the MSM and the Dems will make a big deal out of it to fool the public. It is a Potemkin village approach to politics that Obama likes to engage in. We can all recall the manufactured crowds in Berlin or the Greek columns in Chicago. The guy is a fraud and poseur. His love of mass adoration is similar to other megalomaniacs, e.g., Hitler, Castro, Mussolini,
Of course they will fill it.....after they pay a crap load of Occupy idiots to attend..... =.=
ROFL!! Excellent!!
Hitler did something similar in Nuremberg.
