Did anyone see the clip of Romney chiding/chastising a heckler for interrupting him

yesterday? "Young man.." and then he went on and on about how the young persons negativity was typical of liberals and the nastiness of the Obama campaign. I'm paraphrasing of course. I swear I had to turn it off, I was embarrassed for the man. He sounded so school marmish and jerky. Many in the audience laughed at him and I turned the tv off.

Look at what you did. I bet many people thought like you and felt bad for the young man and thought Romney was being mean.

He hurled a torrent of abuse at the heckler..

Many in the audience were delighted..

You'd nearly wonder if Romney is slightly unstable..

Romney has turned nasty onstage before..but this was a long diatribe..

Ugly, very ugly.
