Obama's Speech Moved Inside

According to the D's it is due to the weather (40% chance of showers). Of course the R spokesperson suggested it was due to lack of enthusiasm.

well if FB is any indicator. My friend who had tickets and now doesn't is majorly disappointed.

Oh, I doubt it was an enthusiasm issue. According to another article I found there were people waiting in line five hours for tickets (in August, in North Carolina). To me that means that stadium would have had a butt in every seat.

I know a lot of people who have tried to get tickets but haven't been able. I doubt it was because of a lack of interest.

I have a community credential, which means that I had a seat at the stadium, but won't have a seat in the arena. I'm sad, but I guess it's better than getting struck by lightning. My friend and I are just trying to figure out now if we want to hang out Uptown and people-watch or stay home.
