Attended a purported Moveon.org demo in front of Fl. Sen. Nelson’s office (someone in the Tea Party group found out and rounded up counter demonstrators).

A number of the MoveOn folks were plainly not Floridians, and would not respond when asked if they were being paid. They were outnumbered about 2-1. All the counter demonstrators went into the Senator’s office and left comments with NAMES and Addresses in Florida. The Senator’s office called me later to check on my address.
If it comes to violence, most of the counter demonstrators were seniors (It was the middle of a work day) and include some military veterans who are not intimidated by thugs.
I had a nice conversation with a teacher who denied being a member of Move on. It was one of the few actual conversations below screaming that went on.
The counter demonstrators are prepared to photograph any attacks. We notify the local police – I saw two police cars making the rounds during the demo.
I have found that there is very little discussion of ideas going on – a lot on chanting and fist waving, but not a lot of knowlege about what is actually in the bill(s). But then, even the Senator is not really up on what is in there….
