If the (GOP sucks so bad that) the Tea Party forms, and they field any candidates, it better be locally and in races they can win.
++++++++++++++

If the Tea Party forms and fights directly with the GOP, it will be 1992/1996 all over again. Many RATS will win by 36, 38 and 40% of the vote, while the GOP and Tea Party slug it out.

Can we afford this?

History, Constitutional law, election law, election protocol (did you know that you need to poll, I think 15% or you will not be invited into presidential debates (guess how made up and controls that rule?) relegate against success in that scenario.

“In the history of the United States, not a single third party has come close to winning the presidency, only 7 3rd parties have even won a single state’s electoral votes and only 5 third parties have won even 10% of the vote.”

BTW: Sarah Palin is a Republican. I’m just sayin’.

Had Bush the Elder not been such a lying, NWO waste there would have been no opening for Perot. I have never been, am not now nor will I ever be one of you “my party right or wrong” people. I prefer to think for myself.
