Rep. Joe Wilson (R., S.C.) collected $2 million in contributions after his “You lie!” outburst. I wonder if Rep. Alan Grayson (D., Impulsivity Fla.), saw his “die quickly” and “holocaust” outbursts as a way to rake in big contributions.

In fact, his staff says they’ve “raised anywhere between $125,000 and $150,000 online” in recent days.

If, indeed, the wilder, louder, and more outrageous the rhetoric, the more you collect money from angry grassroots, then we’re in for an interesting cycle.
