Is The Tea Party Over?
http://www.motherjones.com/mojo/2009/11/tea-party-down

The tea partiers are launching the revolution. This week. But will anyone actually show up?

On Sunday, Rep. Michele Bachmann challenged viewers of Sean Hannity’s Fox News show to join her last-ditch attempt to kill health care reform. The fiery Minnesota Republican plans to hold a press conference at "high noon" on Thursday. She urged Americans to flood the halls of Congress that day, find their elected officials, "look at the whites of their eyes and tell them, 'don't you dare take away my health care.'"

3. There was a lady recruiting for teabaggers outside the polling place
where I went to vote yesterday.

So... no, I don't think so.
