At Tonight's Historic Tea Party Town Hall Sen. Orrin Hatch continues his outreach to the tea party movement tonight, as he has announced he will be attending the first-ever Tea Party Town Hall tonight - Tuesday, February 8th.

Tonight's participation by Sen. Hatch is particularly intriguing since many Tea Party Express supporters felt wronged by Sen. Hatch's actions last year to provide cover to his colleague, Sen. Lisa Murkowski, after she was defeated in the GOP primary by constitutional conservative Joe Miller - who had been heavily backed by the Tea Party Express and Gov. Sarah Palin. "This should be a very interesting night," said Levi Russell, Communications Director for the Tea Party Express. The event will be broadcast live on CSPAN-2 beginning at 7:00 PM Eastern, and online at [url=http://www.teapartyexpress.org]http://www.teapartyexpress.org[/url] and http://www.TeaPartyHD.com This unique event that will feature a live studio audience as well as many thousands of participants who will watch and participate online via Twitter, Facebook, and webcam that will participate in a discussion forum where tea party activists express their concerns, ask questions, and share ideas.
