McCain supporters heckle early voters

from ThinkProgress:

McCain supporters heckle early voters.»

On Sunday, the Washington Times’s Christina Bellantoni stopped by a polling place in North Carolina, where she reported that a “group of loud and angry protestors” — almost all of whom were white — were shouting and mocking voters — nearly all of whom were black. Bellatoni noted that people “were shouting about Obama’s acknowledged cocaine use as a young man, abortion and one man used the word ‘terrorist.’ They also were complaining that Sundays are for church, not voting.” Watch it: http://thinkprogress.org/2008/10/20/mccain-heckle/

Last Thursday and Friday, more than 200,000 voters went the polls in the first two days of early voting in North Carolina.

5. I'm sure all those black people will be convinced not to vote for Obama by this sort of thing.

about how great it is that Chick-fil-A is closed on Sunday and how delighted they were to see that as they shopped at the mall on Sunday afternoon.
