President Obama wrapped up a weekend of last-minute campaigning in Ohio on Sunday, addressing Democrats in an indoor arena that, in a sign of the “enthusiasm gap” that the president is working so hard to close, was little more than half full.
About 8,000 people attended the Democratic National Committee’s Moving America Forward’ rally at Cleveland State University’s Wolstein Center, a hall where the capacity is 13,000. The rafters were largely empty.
I doubt this story will be told on major media outlets and the pics will be cropped to make it look like the gym was full. It appears they are blaming the poor attendance on the Ohio folks clinging to their religion, football idols, and halloween costumes.
