Carnahan is the man who voted for stimulus without reading, who claimed ObamaCare is both deficit-neutral and deficit-reducing (in the same breath), and claims ObamaCare will save money through increasedd inefficiencies.
BRING Signs, camcorders, and friends
REMIND Russ that he is your employee, he works for you, he answers to you, not to Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama, or Auntie Claire McCaskill.
ASK Russ if the Cash for Clunkers program transfers wealth from our kids to people who are in pretty good financial position already.
ASK Russ what kind of message we send by destroying perfectly good automobiles that could give many years of reliable service.
ASK Russ how reducing the used car market will help the poor who can’t afford a new car even with money stolen from future generations.
BE POLITE, but don’t be a sheep. This guy is your employee. He works for you. Remind him, remind yourself, and remind the media if they are there.

*UPDATES*
Sign Ideas:
What’s on page 16, Russ? [or page ??]
We’ve read the bills; have you?
I’m [your age]; who soon do I have to die?
Cash for Clunkers destroys old cars; ObamaCare destroys old people.
Russ Carnahan: “I never read a bill I didn’t like; hell, I never read a bill, period!”
Theme: FEET TO THE FIRE! We, the people, will hold you personally accountable. We will end your political career if you stray from a Constitutional Republic.
If we fail to stop ObamaCare, we will cease to be a Republic.
UPDATE: Carnahan barred everyone but reporters, McMahon employees from event. Tea Party met outside and let their paid Representative know how they felt about his cowardice.
Dana Loesch will have video shortly. Will post photos as the become available.

While I agree that Cash for Clunkers isn’t going to amount for much of a gain for the environment and is ultimately going to cost GM and Chrysler share holders (read – ALL OF US) a ton of money, I cannot find any news source stating that Chrysler is dropping the Cash for Clunkers program.
What I did find is an article on http://www.wsj.com which indicates that they’re going to stop matching the Cash for Clunkers rebate and limit the selection of models that the consumer can use the CFC rebate for.

Sorry I will not be able to attend, but I have tweeted it out and do a post on my blog.
