The Tea Party Express is comprised of the big high-roller players in the GOP and God bless ‘em.
But the real tea party is comprised of people like me. We are not wealthy; we are not well connected; we are really angry; and we are serious as heart attacks. There are a lot of people like me in Massachusetts apparently.
LOL, yea that was said about Free Repblic also, and is just as true for the TPX as it is for FR.
If you believe one, you have to belive the other.
Sorry you have boutght into those lies.
I have seen tens of thousands of tea party people at over 100 rallies that TPX were at.
The hundreds of thousands of "people like you" have no problem knowing that the TPX is driven by them, not the GOP.
BTW, the TPX spent over 300,000 bucks in Mass reaching "people like you", so yea there were a lot of them there.
Sorry, you are off base by miles with your uninformed post.
The Tea Party Express, either the organized group, or just the people that show up at the rallies are also not primarily focused on the social issues of the GOP. I think that is something we really, really have to understand.
The people that I have met are more moderate, but they extremely fiscally conservative. That is what is moving this "Party".
I am not, by any means, saying that the social conservatives do not matter, or that they are not a large part of the activities, but the main focus is the economy.
I am not a Romney supporter, I am a Palin supporter. But I think if we try and read too much into yesterdays victory, it is at our own peril.
