The Craig chapter of the coffee party political movement has lost some momentum.

At the coffee party’s Saturday afternoon meeting, organizer Jim Blevins announced that the group might not have any more meetings. His decision was based on attendance, which was limited to three people other than himself.

Wait! TIME said they were 200,000 strong!

They will fight TEA partiers by advocating Marxism, and that’s really, really popular.

Lost momentum?
You can't lose something you never had.

Actually, Mr. Blevins, your problem is that the public understands EXACTLY what is going on.

The pro-Obama, pro-telling the other side to shut up astroturf party is a dead letter.

The media is the only thing that pumped it up, like they tried to do when Air America launched.

You know, insulting your prospective membership is not a good game plan.

The fact that people DON'T join your group is NOT an indication that they "aren't interested in understanding" it.

JIm Bleivins and the other Dem loons need to give free stuff away to attract these parasites. Something from Obama’s “stash.”

That sounds like the entire msnbc viewer demographic.

But but but the LSM just reported they had 200,000,000 people attend “coffee parties” last week. (OK, it was actually 200,000, but 200,000,000 isn’t really much more of an exageration.)
