Democratic Presidential hopeful Barak Obama hosted a Town Hall meeting in St. Petersburg FL. Senator Obama was challenged by protests from a local African People's Socialist Party, the Unhuru Movement. Obama handled the disruption in stride and addressed the challengers directly and patiently requesting the audience to "be respectful and let these men ask their question".

I'd like to hear the MSM tell the truth about McCain's abysmal and embarrassing performance for once.

1. "I'd like to hear the MSM tell the truth about McCain's abysmal and embarrassing performance..."
You and me both Frank. But hey, at least the alternative media (hint, hint) is covering it.

Keep up the good work.

2. Franks cool. And Obama speaks eloquently, respectfully and constructively.
Honestly.

This is something that I have not seen since Bobby Kennedy.

3. He couldn't have handled it more gracefully
A lot of Democratic activists would yell at the radical left for promoting vote splitting and disorderliness, but Barack openly said "you have the option of voting someone else or running yourself." That takes a lot of courage and I bet it'll help solidify his base.
