Coffee Party = Democrat Party? Pretty much

Annabel Park, a soft-spoken 42-year-old documentary filmmaker who was a volunteer for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign (emphasis mine), came up with the idea for the Coffee Party and launched it in January by posting a fan page on Facebook. She admits the whole thing was initially “whimsical.”

…Park says she was motivated by concern over the tactics and rhetoric of the Tea Party, as well as all of the attention that group was getting from the media (emphasis mine). But she says what her group has in common with the Tea Partiers is dissatisfaction with the government. “Something’s got to change.”
