The Tea Party played chicken with the national economy. Really? The Tea Party gave us the trillion dollar stimulus, 17 trillion in debt, ObamaCare, out of control federal regulations, stopped energy production, transport and created billions of dollars out of thin air in the various quantitative easing (legal counterfeiting) programs at the Fed and put tens of millions out of the workforce and onto food stamps and diability.
Yup, that evil Tea Party just is so reckless with the national economy.
How can people be so wrong and not even have a spark of awareness of being so wrong?
If the Republicans don't want to listen, it is time to kill the elephant and dump them like we did the KING's tea. We need a party that put AMERICANS first.
Estrich was born in Lynn, Massachusetts,[1] and grew up in Marblehead on the Massachusetts North Shore, where she attended the Eveleth School.[2]
Estrich graduated from Wellesley College in 1974, and received her J.D. from Harvard Law School in 1977.[3] In 1976, Estrich was elected the first female president/editor-in-chief of the Harvard Law Review.[4]
Estrich served as a law clerk for Judge J. Skelly Wright of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia and Justice John Paul Stevens of the U.S. Supreme Court.
In 1988, she was the campaign manager for Michael Dukakis’ 1988 presidential run, even though she had never before managed a political campaign. She was the first female campaign manager of a major presidential campaign, and the first female campaign manager of the modern era.

Her Harvard law degree apparently did not prepare her to write a logically coherent argument to support her position.
Can’t wait for it to start.
Cantor’s idea of visiting his district was attending a Saturday night fundraiser at a local country club and then high tailing it back to DC.
If the same number of voters had voted the other way, would she have written a column about Cantor's reelection? I suspect not...and we will never know.
Without evidence, this author is taking a leap making that assumption. I'm inclined to believe that more people voting would have still resulted in the same outcome.
Isn't that how pollsters do polling -- they call on a small portion of likely voters to represent the likely outcome? Doesn't Susan think polls are valid unless they are avorable to her preferences?
Not first tea party win of the season. Big sweep in Texas lege in March. Sasse in Nebraska and Radcliff in Texas runoff.
Back in the 2008 election, Sarah Palin came to Leesburg, VA to speak. One of the guys on the platform with her was a younger middle-aged Hispanic construction business owner from Prince William County, VA -- his speech was solidly conservative.
AMEN
Because they are Democrats and they are stupid....but I repeat myself.
“Plus the poor boy didn’t get to fill his pockets like older members”
Cantor’s net worth went from $ 2 MILLION in 2008 to 13 MILLION in 2014.
I think he was stuffing with both hands.
Only if -- as many people do -- you believe that the duty of a Congressman is to bring home as much bacon as possible.
Thankfully most Conservatives were able to see Rand for what he is. Brat, because he has never voted for/against Conservative values is unknown at this point. Prayers that he stands his ground and follows the path he choose. Rand was always an ‘iffy’ one; just looking at his family should make one wonder. He was given an opportunity, he failed, end of story. Rand at this point seems to be no better, no worse than Cantor or the Rube. Conservatives are paying attention and we are demanding to be heard.
Old Dirty Harry picks up more than that every year, that boy Cantor is a little slow too.
