The Tea Party could become a real political party... might be time. We can vote Tea Party first... GOP second. Hopefully the day will come when every GOP candidate is running against a Tea Party candidate in the primaries...

As a conservative I'm embarrassed of what the GOP has become to the point that I would never identify myself with them.

I don't know when it happened, but at some point the Democrats stopped compromising while the GOP became the party of Compromise.

We hold the House, but you would never know it. And the Senate might as well consist of 90 Democrats, judging by the actions of many Republican Senators.
