Better hope you’re wrong, the TEA party is about all thats left of conservatism.

New Hampshire is an odd little state and PPP is an odd little polling outfit. I would not put too much stock into this poll or what goes on in this state.

"..the TEA party is about all thats left of conservatism."

Apparently the TEA party isn't what it used to be.

I wish I was but I've seen it myself. Our biggest county wide tea party group was taking part in occupy protests this fall. Even our little informal group was approached and offered "organizational help" along with the suggestion that the GOP should get rid of extremists like Bachmann, Santorum, and paul. (I could do without Paul myself but I'm not going to use dishonest means to get rid of him)

I predicted from the beginning that organization would be the death of tea parties. If they're tracking down nameless little groups like mine, considerable effort is being expended to get the job done.

As far as I'm concerned, we can scream about the "establishment" all day long but it doesn't matter much if they're the ones pulling the strings.
