I Saw Tea Bagger Joe Walsh (R-IL) Again This Weekend At The Schaumberg Septemberfest......

Again he was with 3 or 4 of his people just walking through the crowd of people that all ignored him. He looked hapless and lost and crying out for someone to recognize him. People did recognize him and handily avoided him.

Now I've seen other members of Congress out like this and they all draw a crowd of well wishers that surround them. It looked like this guy had some kind of contagious disease and people were avoiding him like the plague. If he did have supporters in the crowd - I don't think they wanted to admit to it.

He's going to lose real bad to Tammy Duckworth. Good Riddance - Joe Walsh. You had your 15 minutes of fame and you flamed out.

Wasn't even man enough to pay child support. Bye-Bye!!!!!!

...he yells at people. The guy is a major asshole and seems to relish in it. He was in our 4th of July parade (probably with the same 3 or 4 guys walking around) and got booed. I know some folks who won't vote for President Obama but will vote for Tammy (I'm working on them to vote for Gary Johnson...even though their votes won't make a difference on the Presidential). This shitstain is going down hard!

"Hey buddy!" "Aren't you that asshole in congress?... The one Todd Akin says is a dumbass?"

The guitar player from The Eagles should sue him for defamation of character.

Saw it here on DU! So it's gotta be true.

She ought to ask him to perform at a campaign event.

BTW, she was awesome last night. Joe Biden cried. So did I.

Tammy Duckworth for Congress

TPM's Polltracker has her down 8 points! I don't know what Nate Silver says, but she needs some love out there! Apparently, even Elizabeth Warren is down a few points. What the heck?

Walking the parade route he looked a bit defeated but kept barking buzzwords to try to connect to the ever shrinking teabag base.
OTOH, Tammy seemed to really connect with people along the route.
