'Squint real hard': DC OFA protesters number in the ones; Stragglers head to wrong protest

A few more participants and Organizing for Action will have a veritable knitting circle’s worth of anti-Tea Party protesters at the Capitol.

@ofa organizer says there are about 18 protesters – some are scattered looking for the protest

In fairness, some did have trouble finding the protest. They were expecting something a little bigger.

Wait for it …

.@charliespiering They've got the usual OFA crowd size, now all that's needed is 10x the number of reporters to cover it.

Maybe one of those reporters (other than the Washington Examiner’s Charlie Spiering) can mention this:
