I went to the TPX event in Denver. There was good turnout. Channel 9 estimated 500. I would guess four times that amount were there. There were a lot of people hawking T-shirts, button, caps, and “Don’t Tread on Me” flags. It turns out the TPX event is more like a travelling talent show. Lame songs about bailouts, etc. There was one song that our group agreed was good, though. The crowd thinned out as the singing continued. We left when they did a constitution rap song. I would have preferred to hear patriotic songs, but I didn’t come to hear songs, I came to hear speakers. Tom Tancredo spoke for about two minutes, and was well received. He mentioned “squishy Republicans” and got an enthusiastic response. It was interesting that when the talent mentioned Sarah Palin, who speaks at some TPX events, but not this one, the crowd response was muted, at best. It seems her campaigning for John McCain is damaging her. The TPX would do better to skip the amateur talent show, lead the crowd in patriotic songs, and invite locals to speak. The Tea Party movement is about sharing ideas, and finding authentic conservative candidates - not watching a lame travelling variety show.
