The Washington Briefing hosted by the Family Research Council in Your Nation's Capital this weekend was a success.

Over 400 people were issued media credentials. The media hits are still being counted. The FRC straw poll was mentioned a half-dozen times on the FOX debate last night.

This just in from FRC,

...the Briefing was covered by well over 400 members of the media, including 31 bloggers. C-Span broadcast the event live gavel-to-gavel and camera crews from all five networks and countries including Norway, Italy, Germany, Japan, Canada, and the Netherlands were present. The Briefing ended up with over 1200 media "hits" -- 1000 stories in print, as well as 235 in television coverage.
