If you haven't read anything on the Tea Party Convention yet, I suggest you do a quick Google search and read several testy articles produced by vigilant Politico reporters who are keen on figuring out everything that's wrong with this entire ordeal. And then I suggest you forget everything you've just read.
I just don't think those things matter as much as the people in attendance, who I can barely even find under the barrage of news media. Kim Keelor, the director of public relations here at the Gaylord Opryland hotel, wasn't exactly sure how many media personnel were here. But it's something like one reporter for every three attendees, or maybe one reporter for every two attendees. That's enough for each journo to fully and accurately portray at least two different conventiongoers, without just using them for quick quotes on movement politics or forcing them to pithily defend themselves.
But that won't happen. Instead, expect to see even more vicious stories on the event's organization
