CHARLOTTE, N.C. – College students from across North Carolina will arrive in Charlotte by the busload. Same with members of predominantly black churches in neighboring South Carolina.
Their goal: help fill a 74,000-seat outdoor stadium to capacity when President Obama accepts the Democratic nomination Thursday night.
Anything short of a full house on the final night of the Democratic Party's national convention will be instant fodder for Republicans eager to use empty seats as symbols of waning voter enthusiasm for Obama.

Any bets on what percentage of these bussed in people register to vote while they are visiting North Carolina?
Obama only won the state by 14,000 votes last time and they have already found 30,000 dead people registered there.
No doubt in my mind Obama cheated his way to the Oval Office and will stop at nothing to stay there.
Yes, Dear Reader, using his miraculous powers, caused the top bar of the gate to disappear so the umbrella could pass unimpeded, and then reappear once the holy couple had passed. But O-Bah-Mah is still only a mere mortal, and Allah hasn't yet granted him the power to command the rain clouds to part.
But, hey, that's not too shabby when compared to his evil predecessor...
CNN:
“The convention proceedings at Bank of America Stadium will take place rain or shine, similar to other events at the stadium,” the official said. “We have an advisory team in place that is constantly updating a contingency plan in the event of severe weather, which will be announced closer to the convention if the need arises.”
When asked to outline what options that plan might include, the source said, “We will only announce contingency plans in the event that an emergency/severe weather actually arises, so that we can be sure that we communicate only one plan, the one that is accurate and relevant to the situation at hand.”
“Our plans will take into account the stadium’s existing weather plans that are used for Panthers games and other events,” the source also said, referring to the Carolina Panthers football team headquartered at the venue.
According to Bank of America stadium, attendees to its football games and events typically stay outside when it rains. However, if there is lightning, the stadium encourages attendees to move under cover to the concession areas.
Can hear 0bama chanting, “Fill Them Chairs, Fill Them Chairs” to the dnc.
C’mon everyone, put your chair filling shoes on!
It would not surprise me if the Obama admin wasn’t praying for rain.
What better excuse to explain the diminished crowds.
“Its the rain’s fault.”
“And, rain is caused by global warming.”
“And, we ALL know global warming is George Bush’s fault!”
or the smarts to figure out that there is a button that closes the umbrella.
THAT’s funny! LMAO!!
Sorry; just got back.
I’d love to see an empty stadium. Bet te MSM would *tight frame shot* 0bummer into a 3x5 card, rather than show the truth.
bump
Potemkin Village done Obama style
That’s now *iconic*. Thanks, Clint!
“Forecasts indicate a 50% chance of thunderstorms Thursday.”
Too bad it isn’t fire and brimstone.
I’d bet that at least 50% of the bussed-in folks are welfare recipients.
I’m praying for fire and brimstone, locusts and hail.
“”Okay, Buy Me a mob, Buy Me a mob!””
Mayor Richard Daley (CROOK-IL) was champ of the Rent-A-Mobs.
Semi-trucks of EBT Cards are unloading at this very minute.
Publicly they aren’t, but who knows what they’ll do in the voting booth?
Still probably a good non-union state and town, even after this circlefest.
Truckloads of EBT Cards ain’t cheap!
