7. Almost 70K in one evening -

and probably no one even knew who Rob Miller was before Joe Wilson opened his big, fat, dumb mouth.

I would love for Wilson to live to regret his unspeakably crude and rude bleating at our President.

That would be such sweet justice.

BUT, it's South Carolina. I'm not optimistic..............................

8. Hey, it's the state full of Rethuglican sex scandals.

Gov Sandford, and that gay Lt. Gov that's also a Repuke. That's like chickens for Sanders. I'm sure by 2010, the good SC folks might just get rid of their Repukes and go blue.

Right?

10. I don't know - it's South Carolina ..............

Strom Thurmond country.................

[rucky]

11. Make that over 80K

[Tangerine LaBamba]

13. Oh, that's wonderful!

I wonder how much of it is from people in that particular Congressional district.

I'm thinking, though, of how much $$$ was coughed up quickly for the guy who was running against Michelle Bachmann after she made her insane remark about loyalty tests for members of Congress. He got seriously big bucks when she did that, and he lost.

So, money's good, but I'd hope a lot of it came from Wilson's constituents who were mortified and disgusted by what Wilson did..............................

14. If most of Rob Millers contributions come from outside the district

then that could possibly be used against him by Joe Wilson. But it does allow Miller to run a more effective campaign. Maybe it will all be a wash.

15. We almost got rid of Crazy Bachmann this way.

Maybe we can nail this one.

17. George Allen II

We can only hope

[murdoch]

16. I donated $50

His Democratic opponent, Miller, lost 46% to 54% in 2008. Miller is running in 2010, he is a Marine veteran who served two tours in Iraq.

[Sisaruus]

[Nay]
