Not the good kind, either. One of the former darlings of the "lets get rid of Mubarak" crowd, the former head of the IAEA and rumored presidential replacement for Mubarak was prevented from voting in Egypts first ballot since Mubaraks ouster. It would seem that the people needed him during the unrest, and now that it is over, they want him to disappear. In other words, "Thanks for the support , now get out"

Hundreds of Islamists stone Egypt's ElBaradei
CAIRO — Islamists hurled stones and shoes at Mohamed ElBaradei, Nobel Peace laureate and a secular contender for Egypt's presidency, as he tried to vote Saturday in a referendum on constitutional amendments.
ElBaradei was hit in the back by a stone thrown from the crowd of hundreds but managed to escape unhurt and slammed as "irresponsible" the holding of a referendum without adequate law and order.
"We don't want you," the mob shouted, throwing stones, shoes and water at the former UN nuclear watchdog chief as he turned up at a Cairo polling station, five weeks after president Hosni Mubarak was ousted by mass protests.
"He lives in the United States and wants to rule us. It's out of the question," one of them said.
"We don't want an American agent," said another.
Amazing. Read it all
