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

I guess my idea for them to offer 6 months double EBT and a section 8 housing voucher in the city of your choice didn’t pull in enough peeps?

A “two-seater” would be appropriate. The smell will be the same.

Images of rows of empty seats at the stadium, home of the Carolina Panthers, as Obama speaks on Thursday night would be politically disastrous.In that case, it will be mandatory to create some images.
Also: It appears you cannot PAY people to come see him make his nomination speech.
Dude's goin' down.

Maybe not. They may just cram them all into a few sections and instruct the television crews not to show wide angle views.

First, we must respect their having the sanity to accept the fact they need to move to an indoor venue.
Second, we should pity them, because they now have to figure out what to do with 54,000 of these.

They can’t blame it on the weather...I’ve been checking. Only a 20% chance of showers.
Empty chairs.

I hope the GOP/RNC has got their act in order ths time and got some ablls and go after these black churches, muslims and hispanics over sham queer marriage.
They need to be reminded who wants homo marriage and how he takes the black vote for granted as the KKK left have done for some time now.
