That is a very stupid statement.
The Tea Party does an AWFUL job in candidate recruitment, they really, really suck at it! The Tea Party also wastes money on frills and does not know how to fund campaigns.
That's where you come in.
Get involved, go to tea party meetings and join any that you can travel to.
It's all about grassroots, get involved!
One tea party group in 2010 endorsed 10 candidates that Sarah Palin also endorsed and they all won.
That was essential in getting the dems out of top leadership in the house.
