Anonymous Coward User ID: 1124895 United States 10/20/2010 12:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Angry mobs, near-Riot in U.S. as Elections draw nearer . Jim Oberstar and Chip Cravaack didn’t just face each other this morning at the Duluth (Minnesota) Entertainment Convention Center Auditorium, they faced angry mobs of their opponent’s supporters.While there were no Duluth police at the forum as the crowd entered, there were five squad cars at the doors when the event ended. Just seconds into the first comments by DFLer Oberstar, Cravaack supporters began to shout the long-term incumbent down with calls of "liar" and "Obama Junior."By the time challenger Cravaack’s turn came, Oberstar supporters responded in kind. Moderators asked for civility and respect, but the cat calls and jeering from a nearly-full auditorium continued through most of the 90-minute forum, often drowning-out candidates' answers over a faulty sound system that lacked volume.
