That’s why the “Tea Party” is still sadly an amateur hour operation

Funny, after the endless stream of establishment candidates who got their butts handed to them in 2012, I was about to say the same about Karl Rove’s group. Let’s see where amateur hour really lies come general election day, when Mitch loses to Grimes and Tillis goes down like a lead balloon.

I think McConnnell may well lose to Grimes. Not my point, and be clear I support tea party folks. But it IS an amateur hour operation, with mostly weak, vulnerable candidates not properly vetted, because there are too many straw bosses -- who mainly exist to make their principals rich (eg. Tea Party atriots, Tea Party Express, TeaParty.org which is a scam org, etc). There is NO "Tea Party" as there is a GOP. It is a loose amalgam of interests that cannot possibly hope to stop the GOPe at this point.
