I'm sorry but the TEA Party started out as and has always been a movement not a political party.

Well, that may be the case, but movements don't mean a hill of beans unless they can coalesce into something more tangible and get their candidates elected, repeatedly. The TEA Party was on the verge of that in 2010, but because of the GOP-E/Obama onslaught, it failed spectacularly in 2012, and quite frankly doesn't look like it is going to do anything this year or next.

Unless someone can pull it all together again, and give the TEA Party Movement something with which to revitalize itself and focus its energy on, then it is indeed finished as a movement. Being a "silent majority" just doesn't cut it anymore.

That's the unvarnished truth, like it or not.

Seemes they spoke out loud and clear against Romney at the voting booth.

They spoke out loud and clear for Chick-Fil-A and Hobby Lobby.

They are again speaking out loud and clear against gun ban laws.

Reports of their demise have been greatly exagerrated...
