I have nothing personal against Pan. I wish him well at his party.

And these parties may in fact lead to a better national dialogue...but I highly doubt it since its likely that the lobbyists setting the agenda and anti-Obama haters in the crowd will dominate the events to the exclusion of those who, like Pan, may be sincere in their concerns for change for the better.

And as a result, in the end, IMO, much like the Ron Paul revolution, these party goers will have their day tomorrow, FOX will hype it for a few weeks, and then the "movement" will fizzle out due to lack of widespread interest in being part of such a narrow, partisan, extremist agenda as is at the core of the party sponsors.
