No I don't. Tea Partiers are "been asleep for decades Rip Van Winkles" that have finally pulled themselves away from their sports and entertainment long enough to see what their political inaction has wrought and realize they are small government conservatives. When Jeb says he's not a conservative he is saying he's not a Tea Partier. When he besmirches conservatives he besmirches you.
If I understand your meaning...I can not agree less.
I am a Tea Partier and I dare anyone to say I have been asleep for years. I was active on FR before the current system. My activity speaks for itself. Sports and entertainment did not totally take up my life, but now I do not even have TV. It is rubbish I do not want polluting my home.
When Jeb says he is not a Conservative he means the party has left him, just as it left me. I do not want him to run...ever again.
I will besmirch every Conservative I can who thinks just saying “I am a Conservative Republican” makes them above the fight. People who talk, but not walk, the effort to inform the sleeping public are my real enemies. I am sorry they can not see the evil things that are being done to this greatest of all countries.
Well, we will never agree, but lets keep fighting on the same team!
