Tea Party-Poopers

Fortunately, for Sarah Palin, she had some followers at her rally a few weeks back. Her staunch supports were there with their signs protesting Health Care, tax increases, and well--most of Obama's agenda.

Unfortunately, for her, the press already asked her supporters how of a Tea Party was expected on April 14. One advocate for Boston's 'Tea Party' rally estimated possibly 20,000 Palin supporters on that date. However, the 'underwhelming' party-of-sorts only managed about 5,000 party-goers (State House News). Those who attended still talked of the event as being a successful one. Palin was quoted clinging to her "constitution, guns, and religion," telling Obama to "keep his change.'

Though the Tea Party may not have looked successful to Democrats, it may have looked successful for Palin in lieu of a possible presidential bid. If Palin does indeed plan to run for office in 2012, she'll have plenty of those party-poopers--er, I mean, party-goers to cast their aggreeable votes when the calendar hits 11/2012.
