Minn Post, here.
"Hundreds," was the description of things in St. Paul.
One point well covered with links, the question of whether the Bachmann-Palin tea flavor, Tea Party Express, is more astroturf than grassroots [you KNOW the truth, don't you].
See this earlier Crabgrass post.
The Palin-Bachmann tea flavor does seem to be too heavily blended of the End Times over Eral Grey, or lemmon-ginger, and certainly all green tea is lacking from their flavor.
Nothing is "green" about that pair.
Especially Michele Bachmann, this link.
Andy Birkey's Minn Independent coverage of the same non-event, here. In covering Minn Independent's report of Immelman seeking iP endorsement, I had let this companion headline slide. Readers, have a look.
