Away from troll bashing & back to politics : the following link contains a very interesting article :

I don't want to see a "Republican tsunami" any more than I wanted to see the Dems in the White House AND a supermajority in Congress.

I think the strength of the Tea Party movement can be read many different ways. I still don't know why it religious nut jobs seem to be the only ones advocating smaller government, personal responibility, etc, etc. I hate to align myself with religious wingnuts, but their overall message, minus the jesus crap of course, is the closest to my own personal POV of any of the alternatives out there. WTF, if I were a "joiner", I might join the Tea Party movement myself. Who knows, maybe I will start an Atheist/Agnostic faction of the movement myself. rofl

There are 3 types of people in the world. There are those that "make it happen", there are those that "watch it happen", and there are those that "wonder what happened."

But not news. Voters are always described that way. I guess this reporter was having a slow day. When my day is slow I just stay home and post on TER. BTW one reporter referred to her work as "fluff". I wonder why?

They pass themselves off as an alternative to the usual assholes. I hope a lot of them win. But in my heart I know that they will align themselves with one of the other parties once they get into office. They are all still lackeys of the RDOC.

I don't shoot until I can see the whites of their eyes. Tea party members have been very vocal. But they are a minority of voters. The one question that stand out is whether the remainder of voters will agree with them on November 2nd, or put them in their place.

yes, they get endorsements already from the gop when they win primaries. though i still give them a chance to prove they aren't bush era overspenders and useless warmongering. they need to address outsourcing too and not just say jobs without mentioning that.
