There is also the presumption on mookie's part that she was beaten up for her political beliefs.
I think her politics was incidental. She rushed a candidate. Try rushing Obama with an I love Obama shirt just to give him a hug—and a present your kid made him.
How will that work out for you? Think the Secret Service will see the Obama shirt, and ignore you rushing him?
Will they stomp your head? No. They are, OTOH, highly trained and deal with this sort of thing daily—unlike bystanders in the case of this incident.
