A lot of enthusiasm was expressed last night for said boos - and one would think this would go well on DU.
Similar behavior went well on the Free Republic - where the firefighters who did that after she fought hard to make W caygh the money for NYC - were celebrated.
The public at large, takes a different view - as I recall of the reactions to Dean's supporters antics in 2004 (Fla convention, Iowa and elsewhere).
Being that obnoxious may make you feel good on the moment, if you are enthusiastic for that candidate, but uncommitted people may have the emotional reaction that sends them to the other side. It's been known to happen.
