On Wednesday, The Cleveland Plain Dealer reported that with less than an hour to go before President Obama’s speech in the recreation center at tiny Cuyahoga Community College's Western Campus, there were still 75 empty seats in the small arena.
Panicked, event organizers hurried around campus knocking on doors and pleading with students to come to the speech.
Many students did come to the rescue and took the seats where Obama’s actual supporters once would have been sitting.
A rather embarrassing commentary for a man who less than two years ago, had an approval rating of more than 70 percent.

Ohio has been devastated by unemployment. It is hard for people to experience "enthusiasm', however, Obama entered office with a contracting economy due to Gigantic National Debt created by Bush Jr and the banking elite that benefited from 2 wars since they own the companies that are being paid by US Deficit Spending. Here in California, most Republicans immediately forgot the Enron electric bills that caused monthly bills to soar over 200% when "W" conned them into 2 wars that were built on phony facts. To not lose face, these same idiots voted for W a second time rather than admit their folly
