Why did Obama use the stadium for his bash McCain speech?

Was it because his ego would not fit into the huge room where the DNC is convening?

    No. The reason was very simple. Despite the whining of the right wing, Obama has tremendous public support. It's simply that so many people want to see this historic event.

    I do understand why the racists are whining about the use of the stadium. Jealousy, of course. They--or McCain--could never hope to attract taht kind of crowd.

    He did not bash McCain, just McCain's idea---big difference. Considering the tickets to fill that stadium were gone an hour after they were offered proves he picked the right place to give his acceptance speech. A lot of people wanted to be a witness to history.

    He did it because he could. McCain is struggling to get 10,000. Kennedy did a stadium too. Go O. Let them get green with envy.

    the room was not big enough for the MASSVIE support obama generates. They waited hours to see that amazing speech.

    McCain all the while needs to ship mexicans to fill up 10,000 seats. In return, ge gives them all immunity!

    Don't be jealous retardedcan!

    So why did McCain use all of these ads when Obama barley attacked him in his ads.

    Awnser that.

  • 1 decade ago

    Because he can fill it. He has the supporters and the clout. McCain doesn't.

    Simple as that.

    No, it was because he wanted to invite the American people to watch his speech, not just DNC delegates.

    Because you were hired by Karl Rove.

    HE USED THE NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL MEDIA TO ANSWER IN NO UNCERTAIN TERMS THE UNFOUNDED ATTACKS PUT ON HIM BY MCSAME.

    AND HE WENT ONE BETTER.

    MCAIN WILL BE LUCKY TO FILL HIS AUDITORIUM MUCH LESS GATHER THE NUMBER OF VOTERS OBAMA ALREADY HAS.
