Disruptions at Conventions

Did any rowdy conservative protestors need to be hauled out of the DNC after trying to shout down the speakers? Seriously. I really don't know the answer to this question. I noticed a disturbing number of liberal protestors disrupting the RNC proceedings on the floor, but didn't notice this happening during the DNC. I didn't watch every single second of both conventions so I'm just wondering if this happened in the DNC too or not.

Considering the RNC was held in a Highschool gymnasium, it was much easier for a person to cause a noticeable distraction. Much more difficult at Mile High Stadium.

The crazed Conservatives were INSIDE the Convention. And pretty scary, too.

Thanks. I didn't get to see as much of the DNC as I would have liked. I really couldn't believe this was all just liberals behaving badly. I've seen conservative misbehave plenty - like the crap Newt pulled during the Clinton admin. I just didn't see enough of the DNC; must have missed the stuff you are describing. What were they doing exactly - disrupting the convention or accosting the delegates or something? Was it televised or is this just something that came out in interviews or something?
