A nation turns its lonely eyes to you

In a way, you can understand the Antoinette's reaction (though calling Elizabeth Warren a "socialist whore" was, even for an Antoinette, beyond the pale):  the Occupy Wall Street movement is gaining in popularity with the American people thoroughly stomping the Tea Party in approval, the republicans have had control of the house and numerous big state governorships and--surprise, surprise--the economy is getting not better but worse, Warren is a real threat to end the Massachusetts miracle for republicans after a mere two years, the republican primary has rapidly become an increasingly bizarre episode of Bozo's Circus.

The real story of the Antoinette's outburst at the Warren event is the utter graciousness with which Warren handled the heckler, even showing empathy for the poor bastard.  Can anyone in his right mind imagine a republican candidate for a U.S. Senate seat treating a Liberal heckler with such grace?

Didn't think so.

Peace,
