I wish I had seen this thread sooner. I would have been there. "Tea Parties" are springing up all over the place. There are a lot of disgruntled folks - not all of them Republicans - who have been gathering at these things. A friend of mine attended one in Seattle a week or so ago, and said that a number of her Democrat friends showed up, and they were quite vocal about regretting their vote for Obama and very worried about the direction he is taking the country. Grass Roots activism is what brought him to power - that and George Soros' bank roll. We have to respond in kind to regain the initiative. Tea Parties are the perfect expression of that.

There was some gloating on lefty blogs about attendance at the first round of tea parties, but I believe they will build into a ground swell that cannot be ignored. Of course the left will attempt to marginalize the significance of these things, and their enablers in the MSM will support them in that, but the bottom line is the ballot box. If this movement really gets going, Democrats are going to be surprised in 2010.
