Just got a badly-formatted newsletter from the Tea Party Nation bozos saying that they've been holding fire deliberately on the Health Care Reform issue...until now.
They're targeting the "219" who voted for the Senate bill (and not the 220 who voted for the reconciliation, for some reason) with a website called "firethe219.com" (It wasn't even set up as a link in the e-mail)
Their top ten targets are named with our buddy Stupak at the top of the list (guess I can't fault them there...)

1 Bart Stupak MI
2 John Boccieri OH
3 Jim Cooper TN
4 Allan Boyd FL
5 Gerry Connolly VA
6 Henry Cuellar TX
7 Solomon Ortiz TX
8 Bill Owens NY
9 Earl Pomeroy ND
10 Scott Murphy NY
(They're using blogspot? Can't pay for a real site? :)
They're claiming that Oregon,Wisconsin,New Jersey,California,Colorado, Michigan, Nevada, North Dakota, Louisiana and Kansas have Congressional recall laws on the books (I rather doubt that) so are making a special appeal to their members in those states.
The site's full of "donate" buttons so I imagine someone's going to get a paid vacation out of this one. They also admit "we need lawyers." Yes, they do, desperately. And HTML-savvy folks.
