Apparently when the tea party crowd isn’t packing the audience, David Vitter doesn’t get such a warm reception at his campaign events.

Check out this video of  Vitter stepping onto a yacht walking into a town hall-style campaign event in Harrisonburg, La.  No doubt expecting the kind of artificially ginned up audience that his staff usually provides, Vitter barely broke stride as someone yelled out  “keep up the good work David!”

When Vitter stopped accept the accolades, the same man in the audience shouted out “I was talking about the photographer,” gesturing to an employee of the local newspaper, apparently also named David.

As the crowd erupted in laughter  the voice in the audience said “we don’t know about you yet.”

Clearly these folks did not get the memo from the Vitter Campaign/Senate Office.
