600 people attended? Paid Sarah Palin 100K...which she placed in her PAC to be distributed to —whom? Maelstorm, do you have any answers to any of this worrisome stuff?

Yes there were 600 people there for the Convention and a couple of hundred additional for the banquet. There has already been posts on FR showing where Sarah Palin has doled out money to numerous conservative candidates across the country.
I have no reason to doubt Judson Phillips until someone prove he's a phony, until then he ran a great event that brought real tea party folks together for an informative event.
