Obama campaign has an arena fallback plan in case of rain
Source: Politico
President Obama's campaign said Monday they would move his primetime address to the Democratic convention inside the Time Warner Cable Arena in downtown Charlotte in the event of rain.
"We're still hopeful that we can speak in the stadium," deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter said on MSNBC's Daily Rundown.
"We always knew that this could be part of the plan," Cutter said. "We'll make a call sometime in the near future about whether to move it indoors."
Obama is scheduled to speak outdoors at the Bank of America stadium — an outdoor stadium without a roof. It's a repeat of Obama's 2008 speech, where he accepted his nomination outdoors at Invesco Field.

Phew! That's much better. I was never happy about the Big Bank of FU America thing to begin with. Then when I thought they had planned the whole thing in an outside stadium, I thought the whole thing was going to be worse than Rmoney with a hurricane.
I thought the whole thing was being held there. Where is the rest of the convention being held?
Phew, thanks 
lol. Everyone else has explained it to me me. 
I imagine the open air packed stadium effect is awesome.
Looking like 95 degrees on Thursday anyway!
