Who won in 2011? Not the teabaggers. The USA is not ready to be led by a bunch of angry old rednecks.

This aint the 50's. 1850's

How did those recalls go in Wisconsin? Did the State Senate flip back to Democrat?

Actually, they took 600+ seats in state and local governments, and threw Democrats out of power in Congress.

John Boehner had nothing to do with that.

State and local government is not where it counts and I also don't believe that figure...show your source. They sure didn't fare near that well nationally.


" According to the numbers, 32 percent of the Tea Party candidates won and 61.4 percent lost their Congressional election.

Only five of 10 Senate candidates and 40 of 130 candidates from the Tea Party won their race. The numbers include any candidate either backed by, or associated with, a Tea Party group."

Several key races were lost because of a weak Tea Party candidate also.

The Republican party of 2006 and 2008 had nothing to do with 2010.

Take the country back or get out of the way.

20 years ago they sent all their money to hustlers on tv pretending to be preachers. Today they send all their money to hustlers on tv pretending to be politicians.

Democrats stood in the way the 1850s.

And the 1960s.
