The Next Tea Party Convention: July in Vegas?
Monday, February 08, 2010 at 8:47 am
From the stage of the National Tea Party Convention, Judson Phillips announced that organizers would be putting together a second convention from July 15 through July 17. (Worth noting: The convention program called it the “first” but not “first annual” event of its kind.) The main goals, said Phillips: more people and a “lower price point,” so that more activists could participate. That might calm some critics of this convention’s price, if not critics who have personal beef with Phillips.
The location for the event is up in the air, but Phillips and other organizers threw around Las Vegas or San Diego as the most likely locations, in part because of the lack of conservative events in the west.
