At the beginning of the day, all of the Hillary supporters sitting around Carthage, Keirsten and I were quite vocal and energetic. Even up to the time the committee returned from their “lunch”, they were still quite vehemently pro-Hillary.
However, as the hecklers and yellers in the room got more and more vitriolic, most of the Hillary supporters grew quiet and by the time we left, were having awesome conversations with Obama people about unity and moving forward.
I think the hecklers had alot to do with that - because in the end, the more reasonable among us don’t want to be associated with that kind of behavior. And I suspect that many people watching that behavior on C-span would have responded the same way. It was pretty interesting to see that transition from way pro-Hillary to accepting what they had seen the committee decide, spurred in part by the behavior among the worst of them.

This isn’t going to Denver. Sure, there are some very vocal, and very crazy, Hillary dead-enders left, but the more limelight they get the worse Hillary looks. Take a read through Meet the Hill Hags, which compiles and mocks the comments left on several big-time Pro-Hillary sites. It’s quite disturbing. There are even a couple of Pro-Hillary commenters who will likely be getting a visit from the Secret Service.
