Packed House? Gingrich Campaign Avers Debate Audience Was Stacked In Favor of Romney

We seem to be getting rather far afield from the actual issues in this campaign, and more on the rules about audience participation and ticket allotment.

“They definitely packed the room," Kevin Kellems, a Gingrich adviser, told the Post.
But that’s not the case, according to both the Florida Republican Party and the Romney campaign. The party, which doled out 900 of the 1,200 tickets, says most of them went to “rank and file” Republicans.

I guess if "Debates" are central to the case for your nomination, this becomes a concern.
