1. I don't know what the MSM is saying...
I have seen a few people walking around downtown with Hillary stickers or signs. But I don't think having a Hillary sticker necessarily means you're opposed to Barack Obama. But I did pass a group of people who had a "booth" near the Pepsi Center with a huge "Hillary for President" sign. I think this is a little different, obviously Hillary is not running for president anymore, so it's a little disconcerting.

But the people walking around with Hillary stickers are not necessarily anti-Obama and I will give them the benefit of the doubt unless I have reason not to.

3. MSM is making it seem like its wall to wall Hillary people
and that they are rabidly anti Obama.

5. Fineman on MSNBC was saying its a real problem
in large part, he said, because of all the media walking around (implied with nothing to do but chat up the Hillary folk).

He said Obama has not won them over and its a big problem for him.

2. Not Elad, so pardon my reply, but here's a thread on it.

A whopping two dozen "supporters", 22 of whom were probably Republicans pretending to be Hillary supporters.

Edit: typo

4. I only saw a few people with Hillary signs or shirts.
And as Elad mentioned, that doesn't mean they're anti-Obama.

I saw a lot more of the Recreate-68-ers and Green party activists doing their thing.
