Hecklers are a liability to Obama Campaign?

[DearAbby]

I heard some talking head on Matthews show today about how hecklers could have a negative effect on the Obama Campaign..even so far as to accuse the Obama Campaign for these hecklers paid or otherwise.

I disagree....it's context of the heckle, "DONT TOUCH OUR MEDICARE!" "LEAVE OUR MEDICARE ALONE!" This message is valid. And people hear those BUZZ WORDS..will be very effective. MORE PEOPLE should do this at every Romney campaign stop.

Seniors, the disabled, the poor. Stand up and shout out. Let America hear you.

1. Of course they aren't bad for the Obama campaign!

The more public opposition to the RW the better.

2. Right. And we appreciate their concern.

3. Who are they heckling and who is supposedly paying them.

5. Ehhh some talking heads Tweety had at the top

of his program...Made a slight reference, the people heckling Ryan, are activists, not normal people actually concerned about GOP wanting to take away Medicaid/Medicare.

I find that odd...like the teabaggers who came out with their "DON'T TOUCH OUR MEDICARE" signs, didnt really mean it.

I believe the GOP would hate the idea of Joe Sixpack getting a clue what is really going on...they hear people screaming about this at a Candidate, they are going to lean closer, full attention.

8. I just read a thread about R/R hecklers on another site and it got me to thinking:

Are these REAL hecklers or are these people paid to make a ruckus to make the Democrats and Progressives look bad?

Mitt Romney, a man not known for speaking well "off-the-cuff" had a quite a few quick responses to these "hecklers".

4. The "He's a terrorist" hecklers

Are fine and dandy I guess. The "Both sides do it" explained that one. You're right, it does matter what they say. I hope we see more of this. Let the sunshine in.

6. No they're not

Those t-publicans took over congressional town halls and sold there crap to enough voters to win the house in 2010. How much more effective would the truth be?
