    We remember McCain speaking up for Obama at a rally and his supporters actually booing their candidate.

    Well here's how Obama handled his crowd's reaction. Of course his crowd did nothing worse than boo(unlike McCain/Palin/GOP crowds). But watch how Obama handles it, and the reaction the crowd gives.

    <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_3SkmGHlH5g&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_3SkmGHlH5g&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

    Then sadly today in PA. when the crowd was being warmed up for McCain and the speaker talked about how Obama should come there and they would show him their values another crowd member shouted out "Kill Him!" This time it was definitely aimed at Obama.

    We are seeing a striking difference, but the one that matters is in leadership exercised by the candidates.

    Anyway it's good to see something positive in the campaign such as this video illustrates.
