http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021124911Geez, usually there's a little bit of a honeymoon for the newly named VP candidate before the heckling starts.
Wow! I've been observing politics for a LONG time and I've never seen that before!
Being heckled in Iowa by old people! Right out of the box!
This cannot end well for the R ticket...

(108 posts)Like I said, I just caught a glimpse of a couple of women being hustled away. They were nowhere near that old.
On second thought--are you sure he's one of the protesters. He's right in the middle of a bunch of Romney signs.

(18,115 posts)It was a Romney rally! Lol. It looks like these are old Republicans pissed off at their ticket. No evidence of code pink. Did you see pink shirts? A press release or statement? Code pink usually owns up to their actions.
Do you remember the hell Ryan caught in his town halls when he first tried to ax medicare? You'd think he'd be used to the protests.

(108 posts)He could have been angry with the hecklers. Or maybe the woman in front of him stepped on his feet. Who knows?

America wants a divorce, and Romney can keep the stereo.

And President Obama also needs to be pinned down publicly and forced to make a stand on opposing austerity and not cutting safety nets. Nothing like the Grand Bargain, ever again.
We have had enough. It is time for the people to be clear that we will not accept a war on us from those who are supposed to represent us.
