The tea party is not a political party, it is an ideal.
Scott Brown was definitely a ‘tea party’ phenomenon because he was MORE CONSERVATIVE than his challenger.

That’s all it takes to be ‘tea party’, whether your opponent is Rebublican, Democrat or whatever.

That is just too dishonest, too relativistic, for me to swallow. And the idea that the non-partisan ‘tea party’ can retroactively take credit for the Scott Brown phenomenon is disingenuous sophomoric nonsense.

You know what's funny? By the standards of some FReepers, this makes the Tea Parties a bunch of dirty RINOs.
