Well, the Tea Party people think so
James Frost: "Sorry, but M. Bachmann just approved a budget compromise which is an insult to the Tea Party, the November 2010 election results, and pro-life advocates. Very disappointing stance by Bachmann."

Well, Mr. Frost is reading her WRONG then. She has said she will be voting AGAINST this budget compromise. That’s never changed. What’s she’s said is that the Republican “leadership” was making a strategic error by standing here with just a few billion dollars at stake, rather than throwing all their energy into crafting and standing for NEXT YEARS fiscal 2011 budget — which will be debated in the summer and implemented in the early fall. THAT’S when the Republicans need to be willing to “go to the mat.” That’s ALL Michele was saying. She was NEVER going to support this legislation anyway!
Frost’ analysis is simplistic and demonstrates a lack of depth and understanding of the political process — and of the principles of Rep. Bachmann.
Nobody has the right to speak for "the Tea Party"...there are so many of them!
