No way.

The reason the Tea Party movement was founded was to fight the policies of the establishment.

No way???

Two possibilities: Bad polling or the Tea Party doesn't view Newt as "establishment".

Which do you think it is?

Not really; Most people I've known in the Tea Party are against out of control spending, more taxes, excess government, and the presidency of Barack Obama.

As far as I know, only Paulbots think that the Tea Party was "founded to fight the policies of the establishment".

The reason the TEA (Taxed Enough Aready) party was started was to stop runaway taxes, spending and borrowing. Last time Newt was in charge taxes were cut, and the budget was balanced. And that was with a Democrat president.
