More than 65,000 community members had activated community credentials to attend the event, and another 19,000 people were on a waiting list for the event. Democratic officials said they expected the lion’s share of those with credentials to attend, because they had to go through a multi-step process that involved visiting a campaign office, and later activating a code using a computer or mobile device, to show that they were serious about attending.

1. Wish the DNC could pull some magic and seat everyone in convention halls and college stadiums around

the country to watch together on stadium screens. That would be huge to see people gathered around the nation watching the big screen and the POTUS.

2. Of course the Rethugs are going to make it look like Obama couldn't fill the place

But this is no different from their efforts to keep their own convention out of Isaac's path.

3. If President Obama...

had ignored any weather threat and anything happened they would have said his ego got in the way. Hell, if he didn't move it (before anything could happen) they would have said he was being irresponsible, it doesn't matter, he's always in a not win situation with them.

Fuck 'em.

4. They are desperate for any good news for them.

And I like David Shuster but his tweet about Obama not being able to fill the stadium had no facts to back it up. I have no idea why he tweeted that.

7. I have no idea

5. The word 'truth' is not in the GOP vocabulary.

Presenting facts just makes them squirm and tell more lies.

6. Really, Reince? Sure you want to go there?
