| Rep. Joe Wilson, the South Carolina Republican who shouted "You lie!" during President Obama's health care speech to Congress last month, saw his out-of-state contributions soar, the latest campaign-finance reports show. More than 75% of the money Wilson has reported receiving in 2009 to the Federal Election Commission came from outside his state, compared with 19% in his last election, according to the non-partisan CQ MoneyLine, which tracks money in politics. |
