    Woman Who Published Bittergate Deluged With Hate Mail

    The L.A. Times reports today that the 61 year old "citizen journalist," Mrs. Fowler, who posted

    her report on The Huffington Post about B.O's statements concerning small town

    Americans says she's received 200 emails ranging from creepy to threatening

    including a few death threats. So much for the new politics and all that

    positive change Obama supporters claim to be feeling.

    Fowler, an Obama supporter, said she thought O's remarks were "condescending,

    even elitist."
