That candidate is a fucking pussy. He can't handle a little mild heckling from one guy and he wants people to vote for him to tackle the "tough issues"? If he can't handle that, he doesn't have the balls to be a Mayor.

OK Ladies...what should he have done. Punch him? That would have looked great on camera. He asked him to join him and voice his opinion to the press, but the real pussy didn't have the guts (or brains I'm pretty sure). Instead, Konop let the guy look like a complete jerk while keeping his cool. No snappy stand-up comedian comeback would have shut the douchebag up. Moving the press conference was the right thing to do.

Allowing the heckler to succeed by moving your press conference is not the answer in my book. Deliver your message. If you have to speak louder, make it happen. It's not so much that he didn't have balls is that he didn't persevere.

Dastard - He should have just powered through what he was talking about. Raise the volume of his voice and talk more powerfully. He let the guy rattle him so much right off the bat, it was ridiculous. Yes, the heckler was a wus and clearly was not capable of arguing a coherent point. But the candidate should have powered through - no spine.
