... here's one sign of hope that maybe we're not quite outnumbered yet.
You probably heard about Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) screaming out "YOU LIE!!!1!" during President Obama's address to Congress last night. This, naturally, caused trousers to tent all over Greater Wingnuttia. The Grand High Exalted Mystic Ruler of the RedState Trike Force saw a worrisome sign, however: as of mid-morning, over $11,000 had already been donated to Rob Miller, Wilson's opponent in the next election.
By an hour and a half later, Think Progress reported the amount was over $60,000. As of this moment, donations to Rob Miller are over $166,000.
Check that -- I just refreshed that page, and now we're over $169,000.
Gee, Mr. Wilson ...

[Update] The above numbers are just through that one donation page. Combining sources, says the AP (via Jim Newell), Miller "has received more than $450,000 in contributions since Wednesday night."
All from George Soros, I expect you'll hear.
[Update2] And now the $169K is over $213K on that one ActBlue page alone. They had a goal, previously, of $200K, and the goal is now $225K. TAX AND SPEND LIBERALS.
