Many tea party Reps want big/immediate change in DC. But the Constitution doesn't allow for rapid/big change - unless you win elections.
T Party ideas about smaller gov are good, but their ideas won't be achieved if they don't change tactics.
Nominating candidates who allow Ds to keep Senate seats is bad tactic #1.
Picking fights that can't be won while empowering Ds is bad tactic #2.
Diverting attention away from the failures of Obamacare is bad tactic # 3.
Overreach is bad tactic #4. Big gov wasn't build (sic) in a day. It will not be turned around overnight. This is a long term fight.
And we care - why?
Didn’t those TEA Party congresscritters win their elections?
The voters continue to send real reformers to DC, but you establishment bastards keep buying them off and beating them down
I’m going to say it.
We Americans do not NEED the Bushes. And certainly not in this situation.
He’s absolutely correct. Cruz, Lee, et al have done incalculable damage to the cause.
Who is he?
Good lord, he’s a idiot.
If your cause is socialism.
TEA Party to Ari Fleischer:
Pi$$ up a rope.
Et tu Ari?
BS.
What “cause” are you referring to?
Bold he ain’t.
Sounds like another white flag-waving member of the surrender caucus.
“He’s absolutely correct. Cruz, Lee, et al have done incalculable damage to the cause.”
The GOPe has done the damage,Incalculable damage by cowering in the face of the democrat agenda and only willing to take what bread crumbs their given.
If the Tea Party didn’t destroy the GOP another Party with conservative values would have.The GOPe is essentially committing suicide by failing to fight these communist clowns.Progressives my A$$.
Is that you Karl Rove?
Cruz, Lee and a few others are standing up for our Constitution.
And they can't do a thing about it.

Which cause? Harry Reid's cause, Obama's cause, or the cause of the communist state? Please clarify
Good Lord, they are all in it together. Hey Ari, why don’t you tell Barry that the Constitution doesn’t allow for rapid change? Tell Barry not to overreach?
None of these GOP elites will suffer when the doo doo hits the fan. They have all been enriched and will be protected. They’ve sold their souls and sold out their Country.
Shame on them.
The Constitution permits big changes, when they are necessary.
16 trillion in debt and another 200 trillion in unfunded liability, it seems necessary.
Promises that can’t be kept, won’t be.
