For those FR readers in the greater Sacramento Area — you should plan on participating in the big Tea Party rally outside of the State Capitol today from 12-5pm. More information is available here. I am excited to have an opportunity to speak at the rally, so my blogging may be light today as I have to travel up from "The OC" for this event at which well over 10,000 people are expected to attend! If you are an FR reader and you come to the event, please come say hello!

Attending this really was really an envigorating experience. I have renewed faith in the strength of the Conservative Movement in California.

10,000 huh? Try 2,000.
The Party’s over.

Memories of April’s massive Tea Party protests returned Friday as thousands gathered on the west side of the Capitol for what organizers billed as a sequel.
While Friday’s protest didn’t match the first one’s crowd numbers – the California Highway Patrol said the crowd ranged from 1,500 to 4,000 – the level of outrage and volume was high.

I found 2 great short videos that will give you an idea of how things went in Sacramento at Friday’s rally. Enjoy!:

1,500 to 4,000
A far cry from 10,000 – 50,000 organizers predicted.
