Dem Activist Slugs GOP Congressman’s Wife With Campaign Sign
It’s all fun and games until somebody gets slugged with a campaign sign — at least in Montana, where following the first U.S. Senate campaign debate this cycle, a Democratic activist hit one candidate’s wife with a rolled up sign.
The debate at Buck’s T-4 in Big Sky, Mont., between Democratic incumbent Jon Tester, Republican challenger Montana Rep. Denny Rehberg and Libertarian Dan Cox reportedly focused on the election issues of the day: jobs, the economy and health care.

“Also that night, local Democrat Rachel Vaughn, who had heckled Rehberg during the debate, slapped the wrist of Watchdog.org reporter Dustin Hurst, who she believed to be a Rehberg supporter, “in an effort to knock my recording device, my Droid cell phone, to the ground.”
The Tester campaign did not respond to request for comment.”

“I am not planning to press charges,” Hurst wrote in an email to TheDC. “I could have done so, but it was a minor thing and I’m willing to take it for the job. I think Ms. Vaughn just let her passion get the best of her and I don’t want to get her into legal trouble over it.”
No, no, no, no, no. It’s time to push back! If we don’t it will all end up like the Oakland City Council. We need to lock up the animals.
