I don't think you understand who the Tea Partiers are or what they want.
Most haven't been involved in politics before, and most want a smaller
federal government with limited powers. There are pretenders, such as
the third party candidate for US Senate in Nevada. (Actual Tea
Partiers back Angle, the Republican candidate.)
One I know personally wanted to run for a low level office, precinct
captain, as soon as she heard that such a position existed. She was
about 48. If you are into politics and an adult you should at lest know
what the various positions are. Her complete ignorance, in my mind, made
her ineligible for the job.
Another guy, who actually organized the Cincinnati Tea Party - his first
event was to gather on the Cincinnati town square & yell & holler & then
march on city hall.
He didn't live in Cincinnati, tho. He didn't live in Hamilton county.
And the majority of the supporters didn't either. It's just where the TV
stations were.
He is in a race now for an Ohio legislature seat.
He might have an associates degree. He has an MCSE. He has been employed
by a few companies. The Dem incumbent got her bachelors degree, spent 10
years in the military doing IT work, got a law degree after that & set
up a practice, raised a family & served on local civic councils along
the way. The Tea bagger wsn't even in the PTA.
While he hasn't done so directly, his supporters have attacked the Dem's
military record.
Ignorant & lame.
I know what they are. They are Republicans. I know what they want -
Republican domination in the government.
They just don't waant to say so.
