Remember Harriet Christian, the angry PUMA? She died last October.

Well known for her angry meltdown at the DNC meeting in August 2008. She was a lifelong Democrat who just got caught up in the overly heated primaries of 2008. She was egged on by Fox News and the corporate media, and didn't know any better. She went astray, and that's sad, but I'm sure she was looking forward to voting for Hillary for president in 2016.

From the looks of her Facebook page she was an LGBT supporter and Occupy Wall Street supporter too.

and it's very likely they will come out for her and it could make up for what could be lower turnout among young voters compared to what Obama got.

So I'll refrain from reiterating my opinion of her particular, ah, rants in 2008.

I'd say this, any Hillary Campaign had really better hope they find some better public faces to represent them this time around, for PR's sake.
