Anyone who thinks this is actual grassroots political protest is kidding themselves.
Actually....a lot of libertarian/meet-up type groups have been organizing for the tea parties for some time. Republican party shills (Newt, Fox, etc....) have latched onto the phenomena, but mostly they're putting asto-turf over a grass roots kinda thing.
