Catching up slowly...

Less than a day after Rep. Joe Wilson formally apologized to President Obama over his "you lie" outburst, a campaign aide confirms to CNN the South Carolina Republican has raised "more than $200,000″ in the wake of the now-infamous moment.

News of that cash haul comes after Wilson directly asked in a Web video for campaign cash to fend off attacks from political opponents and said he's standing by his opposition to Democratic efforts at health care reform.

"On these issues, I will not be muzzled, I will speak up and speak loudly against this risky plan," Wilson said in a YouTube video released Thursday evening. "The supporters of the government takeover of health care and the liberals who want to give health care to illegals are using my opposition as an excuse to distract from the critical questions being raised about this poorly conceived plan."

Money helps , no doubt but the people will decide, as long as he stays strong, sticks to his guns and doesn’t waiver under the socialists tactics.

RE: "Expose [today's so-called Democratic Party] sufficiently, and it will go viral. Once people know their true enemy, they will reject them."

Exactly! So many of the rank-and-file Democrats are apolitical and simply are not fully aware of the change.

IMO criticism of today's Democratic Party should acknowledge that it's the leaders' and the stalwarts' "party" not necessarily the average Joe and Jane Democrat's party.

“IMO criticism of today’s Democratic Party should acknowledge that it’s the leaders’ and the stalwarts’ “party” not necessarily the average Joe and Jane Democrat’s party.”

Absolutely correct. The leadership of the Democrat Party was as I’ve posted many, many times hijacked by the Socialist Left, and has been on that road since the 1970’s.

Many of the “Democrat Voters” are as you say apolitical, and simply vote Democrat because mom and dad voted Democrat, so why not. They don’t think about their freedoms, and how they are retained.
