104,000 Strong: Tea Party Patriots Have Record Turnout for Cruz on Tele-Townhall

By reading the NYT, LAT, ChiTrib, CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, and listen to national level Democrat officials, we in the TEA Party are has beens, re-runs, old news, and loosing sympathizers by the millions.  Gee, who knew?

The Tea Party Patriots blew away expectations at last night’s tele-townhall on the Continuing Resolution with 104,000 participants for Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Rep. Jim Bridenstine (R-OK).

The previous record for an event was three weeks ago when 67,000 participants attended. TPP Co-founder Jenny Beth Martin stated, “no special measures were taken to draw the crowd—only the standard Facebook post for two hours and a robocall earlier in the day.”

Hmm, a 55% uptick.  Yeah, we’re a dying breed according to the Beltway and MSM pundits.

Tea Party Patriot officials believe the intensity of emotions to continue the fight against Obamacare will carry through the upcoming debt ceiling negotiations. Martin noted that the tele-townhall four weeks ago drew over 50,000 participants, and active engagement by grassroots is building with each passing day.

Oh!  That would make it a 108% increase – in a month.

Dead, eh?  And the Tea Party Patriots is just ONE TEA Party group – there are thousands across the nation.  And I’m betting most of them are bearing a grudge (see here for whom the animus is reserved, and what the politicization of the Federal Government wrought (this study claims that the IRS targeting of the TEA Party materially affected the 2012 presidential election)).

And Reid and President Asterisk think they have a problem now, eh?
