109. no I haven't noticed it
and most Dean supporters I know understand him to be a mainstream democrat who was against a stupid and ill advised war which some other candidates running for president voted to give Bush authority to wage. That is one big reason why we support him along with the way he has challenged Bush in almost every area and run one of the most innovative campaigns I have ever seen--truly making his supporters feel part of the process.
