Here’s a pretty interesting sign of the depth of support for the public option and of the anger at “centrist” Dem lawmakers who opppose it.

Two progressive groups who launched a fundraising drive yesterday afternoon citing the defeat of both public option amendments tell me they’ve already pulled in $125,000. That’s in less than 24 hours.

The groups — the Progressive Change Campaign Committee and Democracy For America — are already running ads in the home states of Max Baucus and Olympia Snowe, demanding that they support the public option. As of yesterday, the groups had already raised $90,000 for the spots.

Here’s the campaign Greg Sargent is reporting on:

The Progressive Change Campaign Committee & Democracy for America have produced this advertisement featuring Bing Perrine’s health care story. Bing is a resident of Montana, the state Senator Baucus represents. If you want to help finance the ad buy in Montana and DC, you can do so at ActBlue.
