I think she got coverage because she certainly turned heads. But those Hillary supporters who want to go to McCain now, I keep hoping Hillary will speak up and remind them gently not to do that.

Good point. I felt sad for that woman, but since she decided to rant in front of a camera I guess it's ok to see some humor in it. Because she was getting carried away with the historionics, and I'm sure it was all for the camera... some moms really know how to work the angry guilt trip when they have an audience.

Reminded me of the mother in Everybody Loves Raymond. I expected her to start shrieking: "I take umbrage! I take umbrage!"

She already did, at least twice as I saw. Once on the interview with Wolf Blitzer and the other in a speech after the WV victory (I think)

We'll see if some of the supporters who said they'd vote Republican will listen to her.

There are a lot of hurt people out there right now. If they choose to vote for McCain then they are were never really democrats to begin with. There has to be a winner and a loser here folks. Just because your candidate didn't win and you are a true democrat then that is not enough IMO to turn on your party and run to McSame. Maybe some of these people didn't really care about the party and their policies to begin with. They only cared about a woman running. To me some of them should show some more respect for the hard work that their candidate did and stick by them. I think a lot of those protesters yesterday really showed disrespect for Hillary and her message. I thought I was watching my young children fighting back and forth. I didn't expect to see grown women act this way. Even Hillary I think would be disappointed in the way they acted.

I agree...their actions actually backfired and just made women look bad. For many HIllary supporters it was all about being a woman running for president....."screw what actually matters to the democratic party for the next four years....I want to see the first woman president"

I was a little disappointed in what I saw myself. I don't seem to remember this kind of outrage during the 2000 Florida issue, but maybe I wasn't exposed to it like now. That was stealing an election, this is by no way compariable.

Hopefully the anger will subside and good sense will prevail (hopefully)

I was also disappointed at the guy at the end? I believe he is the top aide for Hillary? Passion I can understand, but I thought his behavior was out of line.
