Reports of the Tea Party's demise are greatly exaggerated.

Just changed my tagline. The old one?

For every Ted Cruz we send to DC, I can endure 2-3 "unviable" candidates that beat incumbents.

What happened in MS has made me decide to financially support the Tea Party only and stop my support of the GOP.

We’re going to punish the repukes. They had to spend MILLIONS of their anti-Dimecrat money to stop us this year and we sure as hell aren’t helping them in November

Limbaugh floated the idea today that ole Thad won because the cross-over Rat voters thought he was a “Democrat,” they didn’t know he was an “R.”

Listening to those disgusting robocalls again that sounds about right.

At no time do those vile phone calls to cross over voters state that THIS IS A REPUBLICAN PRIMARY VOTE we’re talking about - nor that Thad’s a Republican in the race!

LoFos..... thought they were voting for the “Democrat”!

Tea Party candidate Dan Bongino with his Obama bashing and damn Tea Party ideas just barely squeaked by his opponent, 84%- 16% in Maryland’s Sixth. Why is it newsworthy? Because it’s the only competitive district in Maryland for the GOP. Didn’t hear about Dan’s landslide? That doesn’t surprise me, there was hardly a mention of him anywhere.

There are good reasons his primary win is not big news, the main one being that it was a given, his opponent was a nobody with no money. And secondly, the race is a major longshot in November, thanks to the rat gerrymander of that seat. But Bongino is financially competitive, so here's to hoping.

The tea party establishment is taking some knocks, but the tea party grass roots is getting stronger. Even independents and some moderate democrats are starting to see what is happening in Washington.

I don't know if you heard the sickening radio ad that was run on election day. "Vote for Thad or you lose your Food Stamps."

Results matter and so far the Tea Party is a popcorn fart. If enough people aren’t angry now after 6 years of Obama and 6 years of go-a-long Republicans, then a conservative change isn’t going to happen. Not saying “don’t try”, just the odds ain’t in the Tea Partys favor.

Mississippi shenanigans changed my understanding of republican ethics entirely. Contemptible corrupt scum.
