ABC News (Tapper): "my opponent" receives many "boos" @ Clinton event

"My opponent said one thing in Ohio and then his top economic adviser told the Canadian government, 'Don't worry what he said, that's just politics.'"

Boooo! Boooo!

She attacked him for saying he would withdraw US troops from Iraq while his (now former) foreign policy adviser Samantha Power communicated a more nuanced message to the BBC.

"I gotta tell you, there's a big difference between talk and action, but if you're going to talk you should mean what you say so people can count on it," Clinton told the cheering crowd.

Her references to Obama -- "my opponent" -- were consistently met with boos from the crowd.

And then -- while Clinton was detailing all the ways Obama can't be trusted -- an interesting yell came from a young man in the audience.

"We hate Obama!" he yelled. "Obama sucks!"

Just one guy in just one crowd. But I've been at a lot of rallies this year and haven't heard anything like it before.
