Today is finally the day when Rick Santelli channels the rage of American tax payers into "tea party" protests around the country. Given the utter lack of widespread protests in this country over the last several decades (ok, there were some anti-war protests in San Francisco earlier this decade), it will be interesting to see the result of these events.
Will this be a broad-based movement that has enough teeth to make politicians pay attention? Or will this be a tempest in a teapot -- a little bit of noise with no impact? This blogger is betting on the latter.
