I am alive and kicking! We are here and ready to get Newt, Perry or Santorum elected!
Have any links? I’d like to take a look.
My sons and were watching the “debate” tonight. We’ve been horrified at the way the elites have hijacked the tea party and foisted their establishment candidate on us.
Somewhere along the way, with stealth, sneakiness and strategy, the elites have emasculated the tea party. They are not going to let anyone interfere with their corporate crony gravy train.
The MSM is in collusion with the country club elite Pubs to destroy the TEA party, and keep big government going. It’s shameful. The spirit of Washington and Jefferson has been all but destroyed in this country by greedy, big governments oligarchs.
I won’t vote for Romney.
You said it. That debate was UTTERLY pathetic. The fix is in. They want Romney and are going to make sure they get him.
I will never vote for him. He is the GOP Hussein.
Agreed.
The Tea Party is an ideology, not an event.
Wasn’t that debate just horrifying? I think I’m going to start tuning out a bit. It’s not worth the ulcer.
Nope he is not right. Everyone knows bears hibernate in the winter time. Just wait for the Tea Party Spring.
Good post.
I’ve always looked sideways at anyone claiming be in charge of the Tea Party.
You probably want to check out a forum that has ads for your state.
Looks like you’re in MS. I’m on the other side of the country and stick to local forums.
Every Republican candidate, except for Romney, is proof the Tea Party is alive. It didn’t die; it’s stronger than ever. And not having an anointed leader is key to the Tea Party’s continued success. A single, recognized leader can be coopted; a mass of individuals, less so.
I agree; it’s a sleeping giant.
I don't think the author would agree with you. He seems to think the above 3 he identifies are why the tea party is dead.
The Tea party is an idea without known members. It’s out there. No Dues. No monthly meetings. Just a commitment to follow the Constitution.
I attend my local Tea Party meetings when I can, and they are quite well attended.
Good!
Neither are we.
Heh.. heh!
Look no further to the unsurpassed strength of Free Republic as evidence that Tea Party Patriots and the movement as a whole are thriving. American Exceptionalism gets restored in January 2013 when Zero and his minions are escorted out.
Tea party isn’t dead, just reloading. Those who are getting cocky, do so at their own peril.
