Obama Gets Booed At Hillary's Concession Speech (Video)


Mark Hemingway at The Corner: "I just returned from the Clinton rally, and I don't know if this really came across on TV but there was a surprisingly audible number of boos every time Obama was mentioned. There were also a lot of people who didn't clap for him. . [T]he boos sort of took everybody in the press area aback when she first mentioned his name."


"Women need to enjoy equal pay, equal opportunity and equal respect. ... There are no acceptable limits and there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21st century."
Hillary Rodham Clinton, June 7, 2008
