Chuck Todd ?@chucktodd
A massive downpour right now here in Charlotte. And the forecast is taking turn for the worst. Looks like the right weather call was made



DemConvention ?@DemConvention
It is POURING rain in uptown #CLT!
Everyone is running for cover as the downpour begins. #DNC2012 http://instagr.am/p/PPudedFAUM/


Mike O'Brien ?@mpoindc
It is both sunny and downpouring right now.


Meghan Murphy ?@megmurfff
The gods have spoken- #dnc2012 is officially wet!!! Where is the rainbow?



Sara Libby ?@SaraLibby
Being caught on a packed sidewalk in a sudden downpour makes me think maybe there was something to this stadium venue change.


Mark Murray ?@mmurraypolitics

1. God is angry, see?

It was moved because they knew that God would probably strike them with lightning.

Heads, I win; tails, you lose.

4. Thank God for the rain. Keeps those anti-Obama protestors away!!! nt

7. heehee!

[madokie]

8. Wait until you've been caught

in a sudden downpour in your boat on the lake, You'll know from then on out what a serious downpour is all about, I shit you not. That I will guarantee you. Possibly someone on the Obama team has had the misfortune to have been.

[1StrongBlackMan]

9. Just wait ...

It's gonna rain cats and dogs until President Obama takes the stage ... then the clouds will part and the moon will shine through.

How would that be for cosmic statements?

[ananda]

12. Or how about...

... a great president works through fair weather and foul!

[bulloney]

10. Hannity this afternoon is droning on and on that Obama's address was moved for lack of attendance.

I was listening to him while I was put on hold during a phone call.

Hannity could sit in the stadium during the storm and a bolt of lightning could strike him and he would still insist that Obama moved the venue for lack of attendance.

Yeah Sean. When I've seen bigger venues fill up for past Obama events, I find it hard to believe they wouldn't have filled the Charlotte stadium tonight in one of the biggest events in Obama's presidency.

Hannity and his ilk are resorting to this juvenile talk because it's all they have to work with. Between Ryan getting called out on lies (maybe they should have used that national debt counter to keep track of Ryan's lies during his address), the absence of former GOP top ticketholders Bush and Cheney, and Clint Eastwood talking to a chair...what else can you do if you're Hannity?

[Auntie Bush]

13. I'd like to see a ticker counting the debt but labled.."Number of Ryan Lies"

He could keep that ticker moving right along.

[Hubert Flottz]

15. If the ticker had blades you could cool the outside stadium with it.

Lipless lies!

[1StrongBlackMan]

25. Heck ...

global climate change problem would be solved ... But we might have to be considered about over-cooling!

[bulloney]

19. Could someone photoshop the counter in the background with Ryan giving his RNC address?

It would rank up there with kpete's Rmoney photoshop.

[JoePhilly]

18. Hannity is saying Obama is just a popular celebrity who isn't a popular celebrity.

[Hutzpa]

11. nahh, it is because they could not fill the stadium. nt.

[Hubert Flottz]

14. upChuck Toad couldn't see an F-5 tornado on the next block.

Not with his nose where it stays 24/7.

[Cha]

17. There's that.

[ohnoyoudidnt]

16. But Rush said there was no way it would rain!

OMG~!

[hifiguy]

20. Enjoy that heaping helping of crow

Schmuck.

[Blue Idaho]

21. Chuck Todd is a complete and total Fuck Head.

Mr Inside the Beltway Cocktail Hour has all the intellectual capacity of a dog turd.

[fugop]

22. Dum dum dum ... Another lie bites the dust

We need video of the Gop getting busted for all the lies set to "Another one butes the dust." They're so out of control they even lie about stupid stuff like this!

[bigtree]

23. Your move, media conspiracists.

Brad Woodhouse ?@woodhouseb
