I saw that tonight to and it actually frightened me. I understand passion but this was just hate and anger. I was talking to my husband and told him that one of those angry Republicans will murder Obama if he is elected. If McCain can't calm an angry group of people how can he control an angry country?
The ugly hateful underbelly of the Rovian strategy is finally being shown.
