I’m just saying that it’s terrible marketing to be satisfied with a name that is so easily twisted into a homosexually erotic act.

That’s just the way it is. It didn’t matter if, for example, Dan Quayle was a competent or even excellent politician. Once the public decided he was an empty-headed child, there was nothing he could do to put that genie back in the bottle. Once the public decides that the Tea Party is better-named “Tea Baggers”, the ability to market it to the general public becomes insanely difficult. Why ? Because people are generally that stupid and immature.

That's not the way it is. The way it is is that the libs will smear Republicans and conservatives no matter what. The last fifty years of politics, at least, should be proof of that.

Thank you for making my point.

The Tea Party movement doesn't need to be marketed. It isn't a political party. It grew by leaps and bounds without any marketing at all. Why? Because people are fed up and the TPM is a vehicle to express it.

The tea baggers are still getting enormous crowds. So apparently you don’t have a clue.
