As some of you know, Bill Clinton is in hot water for speaking at the Manchester Grand Hyatt. The owner Doug Manchester donated $125,000 to support Prop 8 and that gesture led to boycotts and cancellations to his hotel.
As Bill spoke, close to 200 opponents and union supporters rallied outside the hotel.
“He's crossing protests by gay and lesbian people and labor,” said Jim Brady, 48, of Hillcrest, who held an American flag during the rally. “We just can't support this business.”
“Check out, don't check in!” and “LGBT, we deserve equality!” the protesters chanted, referring to the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.
Who knows if this hurts Clinton's star power, I doubt it will scratch the surface.
