Obamites interrupt Clinton speech, boo NC governor at NC Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner

The "non-cult" strikes again...

Clinton supporters, like the supporters of every other candidate who ran this year on both sides of the aisle, behaved in a civilized manner. The only group from this cycle that approaches Obama supporters are Paul supporters, and they are thankfully limited by their small numbers. Obama preached unity in his speech. Unity? Like the devoted followers of a charismatic personality displayed during Clinton's speech? :eyes:

ABC News' Eloise Harper and Sunlen Miller reports: Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., had to endure cheers for Sen. Barack Obama and boos for the North Carolina governor, who has backed her, at the North Carolina Democratic Party's Jefferson-Jackson dinner in Raleigh, N.C., Friday evening -- where both she and Obama spoke.

The crowd erupted into a chant for Obama, leaving Clinton speechless for a few seconds while she waited for them to finish. During her speech, Clinton also mentioned Gov. Mike Easley, who has endorsed her candidacy, and she was momentarily rendered speechless while the crowd booed him.

Clinton then pointed out that Edwards' wife, Elizabeth, supports her health-care plan.

“I want to thank Elizabeth Edwards for her passion for ending discrimination by the insurance companies and for standing up against John McCain's inadequate and radical health-care plan," she said. "Elizabeth Edwards is a true champion for universal health care.”
