The distance between the Tea Party (conservatives) and the Me Party (liberals) is a million miles. Tea Partiers wanted government out of our pockets and our lives; Me Partiers want government to loot the pockets of others and provide for every facet of their lives.
This might backfire on them (I say might because the leftist media is more corrupt than a rusted junkyard wreck) because as Wisconsin demostrated, the left doesn’t have one percent of the class, composure, respect and patriotism in their protests that Tea Partiers do. They also lack soap and evidence of ever having come with a mile of laundry detergent.
The reason this movement will become an utter failure is that unlike those that opposed the “healthcare” bill, any opposition to legitimate spending and fiscal reform would be completely contrived.
