is evidence of "grassroots" outrage.
http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/04/12/882730.aspx

In Goldsboro, close observers noticed a (light) smattering of stickers being worn by attendees. "I'm not bitter!" read the simple rectangular label on the lapels of a couple dozen in the crowd. The campaign says that the stickers are evidence of outrage at the grassroots level.

Yet it's unclear how spontaneous the sentiment was. A boxful of the stickers was spotted at Clinton's first event of the day -- being whisked backstage.

2. I hope those wearers realize that they will be tagged as repuke supporters.
This is a SERIOUS mistake by the Clinton campaign. You can't have a repuke President in office and then encourage your Dem supporters to not express outrage at the repuke administration. Only a fraction of the people may listen intently to political commentary or visit political internet forums and thus would have no idea what the hell "bittergate" is and some sick political insider joke.

The Clintons need to tone it down a few notches.

5. I am not bitter

Obama sounds bitter.

8. oh, for pity's sake. he never sounds bitter
that's so silly. And the point is that Hillary Flick's campaign is trying to pass this off as a spontaneous grassroots response when it's something they orchestrated and pushed.

6. She has $109million. No wonder she's not bitter.
She might want to ask the people who lost their jobs when she sent them to India how bitter they are:
