Obama Campaign Promises Full Stadium

The Obama campaign promises it will fill every one of the 73,778 seats in Charlotte's mammoth football stadium Thursday night when President Obama accepts the Democratic party's presidential nomination, The Hill reports.

Said press secretary Jen Psaki: "We're confident we'll be full. We have a great ground operation in North Carolina and we've registered more voters than any other state."
