I was there, and the time line is correct. It was the soldier’s final statement that got the boos, and it was out of the back right corner of the room from a small contingent of the 5,000 people in the room.
Obama imagines that people will vote against Republicans for any perceived ANTI HOMOSEXUAL TENDENCIES.
This is barely 5 years after the people voted against Republicans for letting too many gays get in the ranks ~ the guy in Florida, the Idaho Senator, the problem with Ken Mehlman, and a few staffers in the House.
The Public simply does not tolerate Republican tolerance of homosexuals or homosexuality.
They rather expect it of Democrats.
Obama is definitely confused about how the public deals with Republicans and homosexuality at the same time.
I think those two Democrats whooping it up actually gained us an additional 5% of the vote above what we would have gotten. They should be invited back!
