Keep ’em coming!
House Minority Leader John Boehner’s reward for campaigning for Nazi reenactor congressional candidate in his home state of Ohio? The guy won’t commit to voting for Boehner as speaker.
We’re compiling a slideshow of reader photos from the Rally4Sanity. Give us what you got — thanks.
ABC News scrambling (unconvincingly) to downplay its decision to include Andrew Breitbart in its election night coverage.
John Boehner actually shows up to campaign with Richard Iott, the Nazi reenactor guy in Ohio. And then Iott turns around and tells reporter he’s not sure he’d vote for Boehner for Speaker!
I mean, I went all the way to Bergen-Belsen and all I got was this crummy (non-Speaker endorsement) t-shirt?!?!
Wingers go nuts over Yusuf Islam’s (Cat Stevens) appearance at Stewart Rally.
Carl Paladino sends out campaign mailer in New York governor’s race marked “Important Tax Information.” Take a look.
TPM Reader KM also bailed:
I dont know how many people attended, but the crowd was overflowing the official permit area by 11am. All the way put 7th street to gallery place is walking traffic only.
They were really unprepared for the size of the crowd. No secondary speakers or jumbotrons set up.
My friends and i left because we couldn’t see anything (we’ll send pix later) but every bar in gallery place is jammed and showing the rally on tv. I’m in a sports bar, and they’re showing cspan on more tvs than football.
It’s insane down here.
Somehow this seems about right. Red America shows up for a raucous, passionate, blunt rally on the mall. Blue America shows up for a tongue-n-cheek, ironic, humor-based rally on the mall with no explicit reference to an authoritarian, fear-based society but a comedian in character who makes the point indirectly.
