Looked like an aisle space to me. There's one like it in my local movie theatre. Just a space. nt Honeycombe8 Sep 2012 #8
Looking at the video, it does look like an empty space. BattyDem Sep 2012 #9

There was a flag banner in front of Biden's seat and another in front of the seat next to him. It looked like a seat to me.

On edit: Just looked at the Clinton video. Could be an empty space, but when I was watching it live, I just assumed it was a seat. I guess it's time to invest in an HDTV so I can see the details, LOL!

That's what I get for watching it on an old TV. Oh well ... it still gave me a giggle.

Just looked at the Clinton video. Maybe it was an aisle. Not sure. No biggie ... at the time, I thought it was a seat, so it gave me a giggle.

After seeing the comments (and after looking at the video), I realize that it wasn't even a seat - it was an empty space! Adrenaline does weird things to the brain!

might have to take a little sumthin' sumthin' to help me sleep. Of course, still being online *isn't* helping, but I can't pull the plug!

Should be in bed, but I'm too wired to sleep and I'm enjoying the commentary about the DNC on DU and other sites. Don't want to leave yet.
