The Tea Party and the Republican Party Are the Same

The media & the DemocraticParty benefit by making the TeaParty seem like a growing movement, but, in fact, there are only 600 teabaggers registered nationally. What they actually are is the Republican base. The TeaParty is not really a "growing movement" any more than Republicanism is growing -- The TeaParty IS the RepublicanParty, & it's not any more conservative than the party's been for 30 years.



There are only a handful of them even running, & even if they all won (O'Donnell's 20 points behind in the polls), they'd move to the left as ScottBrown has done ("SarahPalin, who?") or remain fringe (in reliably 'fringe'-districts) or get voted out if they failed to move to the left once elected. Teabaggers would be directly controlled by Republican leadership in the Congress, the same Republican leadership that Obama & DLC Democrats have refused to go after. Even SarahPalin governed Alaska as a moderate Republican; if you're not afraid of EvanBayh, you've got no business being afraid of the actual political parties that use teabaggers and are in full control of them.



But it works for the DLC-controlled DemocraticParty to portray it as "Us versus Them", instead of the fact that the base of the DemocraticParty, the left, has had it with Obama & the DLC.
