The opponent of GOP Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC), who yelled “You lie!” at President Barack Obama during his speech to Congress on healthcare, has raised more than $50,000 from online donors since Wednesday evening.
ActBlue, a liberal advocacy group, posted an appeal for Wilson opponent Rob Miller, a Democrat. Within hours, online donors flooded the site, leaving the Republican’s Democratic opponent flush with new campaign cash overnight.
“Rob Miller is running against Republican Joe Wilson,” the site writes. “Who’s that? He’s the guy who yelled ‘you lie’ at Obama on international TV.”

Maybe, we can get a "two-fer". Sanford and Wilson, two redbird, neoliberal, classless, poorly educated, racist politicians for the price of impeaching one.
