Boxer: Dems need to match Tea Party energy as midterm elections near By Sean J. Miller - 04/17/10 02:07 PM ET Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) warned that Democrats must match the Tea Party's energy and enthusiasm or face the consequences in November.

"At this point, I think the polls are showing that there is more enthusiasm with the tea party party," Boxer said before taking the stage at the California Democratic Party's convention in Los Angeles Saturday. "I think it is absolutely a fact that we have to match that enthusiasm."

According to the Sacramento Bee she added, "I'm just going to do what I've always done."

Boxer is expected to face a strong challenge from either former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina (R) or former Rep. Tom Campbell (R-Calif.). The two are vying with state Assemblyman Chuck DeVore (R) for the GOP Senate nod.

Polls have shown Fiorina and Campbell in a close heat with the three-term incumbent.

New flash soon to be former disgrace Senator Boxer: the tea party are here to stay. We tea party member do intend to hold politician from both party accountable when we sent them to Washington DC. We are not racist; I happened to be an American Vietnamese who share the view of the Tea Party.

It will be kinda hard for the Left to match the Tea Party, their golden emotion getter of the last 10 years was the “War on Terror” and massive anti-war rallies. Now that they are the party in charge of the war, they have no use for the few anti-war protesters left.

No passion left on their side, just stories about how poor people are now going to get health care.

“Boxer: Dems need to match Tea Party energy as midterm elections near”

Does that crazy b!tch realize that she is “admitting” that the Tea Party movement is making a big difference? She is going to get a scolding by Pelosi and Barry for that statement. I love it...lol.

Obviously Boxer is so out of touch with America that she cannot believe what her own eyes see. She need “polls” so see that we are energized.

She doesn't get that she is the senator of the people in the "tea party party" too. Instead of showing some interest in their concerns, she merely wants to roll over them. Typical.

I guess it’s time to gin up some SEIU folks and get caravan of busses into minority neighborhoods. Because that’s what left of Dems support.

To a Brigadier General at a hearing:
"Please call me, Senator. I worked so hard for that title."

The year of her initial election win was the year of the Anita Hill blowback from the Justice Clarence Thomas hearings. The only "work" she did to get elected was to be born with a vagina.

Aren’t the Dems/Progressives a laugh a minute? lol

I bet the Progressives even lie in their dreams. Their “word engineering” is catching up to them.

TRANSLATION: It’s time for the left to pull few stunts and blame them on “extreme” right wingers.
