Clinton Protesters Get Rained On, Literally

Thinking of those Clinton protesters, may I suggest the weather today in DC is divine retribution? Not seen a storm like this in a long while and no one could have been outside during it.

See these notices from the National Weather Service:

Here's some video from The Washington Post:


Oh well.

UPDATE: Here's is quite a vivid and nauseating report, Scenes From Today's RBC Hillary Protest. As I noted wrote yesterday, how on earth does Hillary put this back in the bottle? How? But she's not thinking of that.

The New Republic reports:
Has it come to this? We tend to assume the Hillary camp's hot rhetoric--that Obama's less ready than McCain to be commander-in-chief, that the DNC in Florida is like Mugabe in Zimbabwe--is studied, purposeful, that they can't really believe it. That may be true at the Lanny Davis level, but by the time it trickles down to Hillary's most grassroots supporters, it becomes deadly serious.
Then this:
It's easy to sink into despair here. Standing and watching all these Democrats chat up Sinclair (a man who claims to have oral sex with Obama)...makes me want to fall to my knees, rend my garments, and start insanely screaming, "Wake up! Wake up! You'll hate a President John McCain!" But the rhetoric from the top has imparted its poison below, and the bitterest criticisms of Obama gain traction as they circulate through the virulently-pro-Hillary echo chamber.
Hillary Clinton is responsible for this atmosphere and talk.
