This event is expected to draw around 3,000 people. Hopefully this will help Ron Paul in the caucus straw poll.

Good news for us. Bad for Santo.

It would be nice if Ron reminded them of who started the tea party, and how the other candidates in no way represent those original ideas.

Weird - I went to check on something in this story and Google substituted a completely different story using the same link. I'm not sure why they did that - maybe the original story had some bad information. Basically, it said that the Kansas Tea Party believed that Santorum was skipping their event on the advice of the Kansas GOP. Seems like there is some tension between the tea parties and the GOP in Kansas. The new story is titled "Santorum in Kansas: Not Establishment's Candidate". I wonder if the Santorum campaign got the original article taken down somehow.

Ron better mention Rick's Tea Party support flip flop:

I found another link for the original story - the story that actually matches the title of this thread: http://news.yahoo.com/gops-santorum-draws-tea-party-ire-kansas-180843886.html

Of course, they only mention Ron Paul's attendance at this rally in the last paragraph.
