43% Now View 'Tea Party' Label As A Negative
Rasmussen Reports ^ | Tuesday, August 30, 2011 | Rasmussen

Posted on 08/31/2011 8:24:37 AM PDT by Cheerio

Looks like it’s a little more popular to be a liberal or a progressive these days, although conservative remains the best political label you can put on a candidate for public office. Being linked to the Tea Party is the biggest negative.

Couldn't find it posted yet. Looks like the left's propaganda lame stream media attack on the Tea Party is having some effect.

43%? That means Democrats. No big deal. Conservatives and the Tea Party just need to hang in there.

The msm smear campaign is popular among Blacks and the Left, who will be voting Democrat anyway.

It will be “unexpected” next year when the vote rolls in and the reach of the TEA Party will be enormous. The Leftist coasts have no idea how deep the anger and disgust with Big Government really is in other parts of the country.

Who cares about polls, there is no such thing as a Tea Party. Guess last Nov never happened and everybody loves the Dims.

Alinsky’s rules at work. Expect this propaganda to increase exponentially as the time to election draws nearer. The Marxists will not go quietly nor honorably.

Only because of the constant Media attacks on the Tea Party for the last 2 years by the MSM. No other group has had such a national and international coordinated smear campaign (besides Israel) against them and yet despite that only 43% disapproval.

TOO many elected officials are so afraid of the LSM, that hanging in there is not in their DNA. The rats know they have this upper hand since they control the news and culture.

It’s because we’re bad.

On the day I was born, the nurses all gathered ‘round
And they gazed in wide wonder, at the joy they had found
The head nurse spoke up, and she said leave this one alone
She could tell right away, that I was bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad to the bone
B-B-B-B-Bad
B-B-B-B-Bad
Bad to the bone

Come Nov 2012, Rasmussen and other pollsters will learn that being a candidate that supports the Tea Party values will lead them to an overwhelming victory.

So Republicans who distance themselves from the Tea Party, does so at their own risk.

Shouldn’t “Tea Party” be compared to other parties, rather than liberalism or conservatism? Not that it is an actual party, but it does use the word “party,” and it’s closer a party than an ideology, according to which it would be known as conservato-libertarianism.

Again, who defines Tea Party? Is it the conpersons who are claiming the label to make money? Is it the disorganized groups that have formed to make money from the label? Is it the left who is trying to create a bogyman that they can isolate and attack? Or, is the Tea Party a collection of concepts that resonates through most of America and is about to expel the Progressive Communists?
If I am right, the only measure of Tea Party will be at the ballot box in 2012.
