Hillary Booed at McCartney's Twin Towers Relief Concert

New York Senator Hillary Clinton was roundly booed at former Beatle Paul McCartney's Twin Towers relief concert, held at Manhattan's Madison Square Garden Saturday night.

The embarrassing moment came as Sen. Clinton introduced a short video clip from stand-up comic Jerry Seinfeld.

Though the former first lady has tried to capitalize on the Twin Towers tragedy, thrusting herself before one TV camera after another in an effort to connect with average New Yorkers and advance her 2004 presidential ambitions, McCartney's concert showed the effort still needed more work.

One eyewitness to the scene reported to the website FreeRepublic.com that Clinton "was booed so loudly, she had to yell into the mike to be heard."

Another estimated that "90 percent" of the crowd jeered the former first lady.

Her husband, the former president, who was also present, got a much warmer reception.

You are sooooooooo right:

"Sorry I missed it. And I bet I won't get a chance to see it on CNN or the gang of three (ABC, NBC & CBS). Let's see if Fox can get it out there for the rest of us to appreciate...."

Some people don't understand we've entered into a new era, and keeping trying to drag us back. *IF* we don't let them drag us back, we'll win. If they drag us back to pre 9/11, America is doomed. Assuming Halloween 2001 is safe is stupid. On Nov 1 we're going to hear more horror stories than we're prepared to.
