Jane Fonda Helps out Barbara Boxer

Actress and liberal activist Jane Fonda is joining Sen. Barbara Boxer Saturday at a fundraiser to help the California Democrat’s reelection and local Republicans are scrambling to do a last-minute protest.

The Republican Party of Los Angeles County sent out an urgent email Saturday morning asking supporters to gather for a protest that afternoon outside Boxer’s fundraiser along the famed Sunset Boulevard.

The 6 p.m. fundraiser called "Keep Change Alive" is also hosted by actors Tobey Maguire and Alyssa Milano. Fonda announced on her Facebook and Twitter accounts that she would be there to support Boxer.

“Events during this campaign season are going to move quickly,” according to the email sent from Gary Aminoff, first vice chairman of the local GOP affiliate. “We need to be able to respond quickly."

Aminoff asks protesters to bring American flags “and spend an hour or so letting Barbara ‘Don’t call me Ma’am’ Boxer know that she has some real opposition this year.”

He is referring to Boxer’s scolding of Brigadier General Michael Walsh at a hearing in June of last year to respect her senatorial status.
