Democrat Rob Miller's campaign war chest just got a whole lot heavier.

Miller is the Marine Corps veteran challenging Rep. Joe Wilson, the South Carolina Republican who took the opportunity afforded by a joint session of Congress on Wednesday to yell "Lie. You lie," at President Barack Obama.

Progressive Democrats took that as a cue to donate to his opponent, and accounts earmarked for Miller on the progressive Website Actblue jumped from a few thousand dollars to $105,943 between the speech and 9:15 a.m. on Thursday.

At least nine different Miller-linked funds appear to have been created since the speech, including one called "Defeating the man who yelled 'liar' at Obama: Goodbye Rep Joe Wilson' that had collected more than $500,000 overnight.

Wilson beat an underfunded Miller with 53.7 percent of the vote in 2008.

Everyone ought to be throwing money at Wilson right now, but it's not going to happen of course. He's backed down from democrats, and of course BO.

For a moment there was a glimmer of a backbone in one of our appointed stooges, but that all went out the window.

Indeed.

And 80 million AMERICANS DID NOT VOTE LAST TIME AROUND.

That is why there has to be a choice, a third party at least. We of the 80 million HAVE NO VOICE. No one that articulates our concerns nor our views.

We need a fire eating orator with backbone. Currently it appears that Paul, Wilson, Palin etc etc are not up to the basic standard.
