"WASHINGTON (CNN) — Joe Wilson's outburst has resulted in a cash windfall for his 2010 Democratic challenger Rob Miller. According to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, Miller raised $100,000 overnight from 3,000 individual donors after Wilson shouted "You lie!" at President Obama during his address to Congress on Wednesday night. Miller released a statement last night accusing Wilson of "engaging in childish name-calling and disrespecting out Commander-in-Chief." Wilson's shout prompted Democrats on the Web to direct donors to Miller's Web site and to the Democratic fundraising site ActBlue."Joe was thugged into apologizing for what many Americans were screaming at their TV sets last night. In fact during three morning talk shows here in the South Florida market, the supportive calls far outweighed the negative. Joe Wilson's site is offline due to traffic now, but when it's up we need to show our support for him and for the honesty and yes, guts, to say what needed to be said. So when his site is up we need to show our support by contributing to his campaign. The Palmetto Scoop is offering this t-shirt free (50 only) to show your support.
