Why the fuck didn't Romney accept the nomination in a stadium?

[MineralMan]

The answer is simple. He couldn't fill a stadium. President Obama can and will fill a stadium. He's done it before, and he'll do it again.

Take that, Willard!

1. But then he could talk to all the invisible Democrats in empty seats

[MineralMan]

2. Well, there is that, I suppose.

13. The LDS apparatus is going to mobilize to get voters to the polls

Don't doubt it.

14. They'll try.

That's certain. So will we.

6. He tried once--remember...

7. Because you can't make the Republican demographic sit in the sun in Tampa in August.

It warps the plastic on their Medicare scooters.

8. He could have filled it with Clint's invisibles nt

[taterguy]

9. Because there's no stadium in Tampa

10. Just checked. The arena in Charlotte can hold 20,000 people!

Are they really going to have that many there? I guess now that you mention it I don't know if non-delegates can attend and how that would work. That's some crowd if they can do it.

11. He's accepting the nomination

at the Bank of America Stadium, Home field for the Carolina Panthers. This place can hold over 70,000 and I won't be surprised to see it pretty full unless the predicted thunderstorms roll in too hard.

12. Buccaneers stadium is about the same capacity.

Raymond James Stadium would have so many empty seats that the
rethugs would be too embarrassed to have it shown on TV.
