Which clearly points out that the tea party is not a non-partisan group, as you are trying to portray them. They will not support Democratic candidates, no matter how fiscally conservative that Democrat may be.

Derivative deregulation was a clear bipartisan effort.
You dont get it the whole point is the economy,deficits wars all caused by black people. Tea party 101

I'm still trying to figure out what Tea Partiers are doing to reinstate Glass Steagall.

One thing I have learned about the tea party is they like to add "ist or ism" to words, and half if not most of the time they don't seem to know the actual definition. Probably shouldn't be surprised, it's the Party of the Misspelled sign, so what ever.

Personally the day the Real Republican drop these folks it would be a good day, it's good to know there are a few in the senate who still have some intelligence.

They would have to be very Conservative, not Conservative Lite.

There is usually a much more conservative alternative to choose from.

Wanting to cut spending and in the next breath going after the 2nd amendment is not going to cut it.

The Republican Party can't just drop these folks, d-a


These folks are supporting people that are putting the Republican and Democrat machines in the rust pile.

Right, I mean here's their logic:

Democrats caused Fannie, Freddie, and the CRA.
CRA caused all the lending.
The Lending caused the crisis.


... i will admit it is logical... it is just wrong. CRA wasn't a $1.5 trillion/year lending program. "Subprime" is not synonymous with "CRA", and I've seen several attempts by different think tanks (like the AEI, for example), to try and pretend that these two are the same thing.

I don't think any of the Blue Dogs go after the 2nd Amendment. You'll have to do better than that. Otherwise, your assertion that the Tea Party is not partisan is obviously untrue.
