>Is it your understanding that he should not be campaigning on the Sabbath? My knowledge of Judaism is limited, but I thought I had read he could not ride in a car or talk on the phone during the Sabbath. And from what I have read, he has done that, including walking four miles to cast a senate vote on Saturdays.

It goes much further that riding in a car or talking on the phone - it includes using any type of machinery, including turning on/off light switches or using voting machines. ;) Basically, work in general - campaigning or otherwise.

IMNSHO, I don't care what day it is, demonstrating outside someone's house is just plain uncalled for. Some things just ain't right, and that's one of them.

But also remember, these demonstrators aren't official representatives of either candidate or party or convention - these are just people, most of whom probably don't have anything better to do with their time. To prevent such idiocy in the future, the parties should issue a joint statement urging their supporters to refrain from this sort of behavior.
