When the Tea Party Express pulls into the city where the conservative movement got its name, the crowd will be as notable for who is not there as who is. Palin is the keynote speaker on Wednesday, April 14, 2010, but Republican Sen. Scott Brown, whose January election the movement claims as its proudest accomplishment, is skipping the event.
