Can't Get Your Congressman To A Town Hall Meeting? Get A Mannequin.

If you haven't seen Donald Lambro's column on Democrats avoiding town hall meetings this summer, it's well worth a read.

My story today on Rep. Bobby Bright, a Democrat from Alabama, highlights one approach those constituents could take when confronted with shameless legislators. Bright refused to hold any meetings last August, so tea partiers got a mannequin, dressed it up as their Congressman, and held their own town hall meeting right on the steps of their state capitol. It probably got the message across to Bright just as much as any in-person confrontation would have.
