The Tea Party has no leaders—but it has voices. Sarah Palin is one of the most prominent of them in the movement. The movement has no real head—if it did the rivals would try to chop it off. Sarah Palin, isn’t a Tea Party Queen—but she is a respected member. When she speaks the movement listens. Try to stop the movement—you can’t. The next election will show its power one more time. The GOP will need to listen or become part of the dust bin of history.
Very well said.
Many of us missed that song during the Bush/Clinton/Bush years, and we discussed if often, but when Sarah stood up and began singing it, many of us could hardly believe our ears.
That song resonates with all true Americans, and therein lies the reason for the passionate, unbridled support that so many Americans express for this wonderful patriot.
No, she's not Ronald Reagan, but as you so eloquently put it, she sings the same full-throated melody, and we love her for it. Even more-so, because she sings it straight from the heart.
Sarah is my choice. I’m holding out for her. So, tell me now, in all honesty, do you think she’s gonna run?
How did the Bushes treat McCain badly? I recall it being the other way around.
Ron Paul has more to say in the founding of the tea party than Palin does, but Palin gets a lot of credit for the positive tea party results across the country. She was out there working harder for the tea party candidates than anybody.
In terms of being able to show video of “proto tea party” type events, there is a ton of video from various “tea party” events on 12/16/07. There is video of people with tri corner hats. There is video of Ron Paul dumping tea into the water in a reanactment of the original Boston Tea Party.
If Ron Paul wants to use this video to make a TV Commercial showing that he is true authentic old school tea party, it will be effective. There were simultaneous tea party events taking place all over the country, and even in other parts of the world. And it puts to bed the idea that Ron Paul is not tea party.
