I don't think so, they're doing all kinds of damage to the GOP. Keep up the good work tea partiers!
If only there were people of courage to do the same damage the DNC. Unfortunately, the DNC is filled with shallow, condescending, arrogant, progressives who only want to demolish the USA!

Thank You... you are exactly right!

What are their views?
You don't support a smaller, constitutionally bound government, and fair taxation? Their illegal immigration is a fairly minor position when compared to the overall premise!
The bottom line is 2/3rds would not do away with the TEA party!!! Woot, the OP didn't expect this!
Not a surprise, actually. Conservatives wouldn't vote to do away with the Tea Party, obviously. And those on the left wouldn't, either, as they have been the Democrats' best friend. Right now there would be at least four more Republicans in the Senate if not for the Tea Party. Woot, indeed!

True, but even without strategic reasons, why would anyone want to do away with any fringe political group? The Perot folks had a far better shot at changing our political structure than the TP ever has and ever will, as Perot received over 19.7 million votes (18.91%), and even with that, their party didn't last.
the 2 establishment parties will remain the same two establishment parties.

It's funny that what you call courage most other people call stupidity.
I could have sworn I heard someplace, that the TEA Party was dead??
