This Obama supporter Robert Holeman, whose exploits were front-page on Drudge yesterday, seems like a knave. He went to a Clinton rally yesterday in Canton, Ohio, where the former president was speaking. Problem is, he seems to have gone with one clear mission in mind:

Throughout the event, as Clinton made his case for his wife, Holeman's dissenting voice could be heard. At times he simply shouted Obama's name. When Clinton would set up a sure applause line, Holeman could be heard heckling. As soon as Clinton finished speaking, the Canton native made a beeline to the ropeline to give Clinton a piece of his mind.

"I asked the president to please stop the bickering between the campaigns," Holeman said in an interview afterwards. "All this name calling is like the bully in the yard. He can't get his way, he can't get nothing done." Holeman said he thought Clinton was "gasping for air."

"This is the last hurrah. After March 4, Hillary Clinton will be out of the race for good, and Obama will take the commanding lead," he said. "She should back him with her delegates immediately. That's what I'm asking them to do."

Drudge highlighted the story because Clinton got angry with Holeman, who shamelessly claims,"I think he even hit me in the face with his hand." Well, sir, either he did or he didn't. That's not the kind of charge you have to "think" about.

The larger point is that if Holeman went there to ask the former president an honest and fair question, that's fine. But he didn't. He went there with the intention of being a total creep and getting in the news. Mission accomplished.
