Unless a viable third party comes along.

It's looking more and more, to me, like our dream of the Tea Party taking over the GOP may not happen. Or may not happen soon enough to save America.

Maybe it's time to start thinking Tea Party as 3rd Party?

Don't fall for this BS! I recently had to have lunch with some people among whom was a Lib woman who was convinced Obama would easily coast to reelection next year and that Republicans would be severely punished (lose a *massive* number of seats in congress) for their "obstructionism." LMAO.

The human capacity for self-delusion is boundless. This article just shows the GOP establishment is not immune. These GOPers who think they've in any way co-opted or tamed the Tea Party are in for a big shocker next year.

No, they all are subject to the vote. One thing a few years from their re-election they always count on, a short term memory in the electorate brought on by a lack of care and frankly trust in those who we elected to office.

Now we have seen our own goverment turn on the people an loot the treasurey. The Tea Party is awake, pissed and we won’t forget. We ARE taking notes boys. Your day is coming.

As a TEA partier, I’m still working on infiltration. Our county GOP has already been co-opted with 60% or so of the folk attending monthly meetings belonging to the local TEA party!

We’re currently at about 30% on the district level, judging by the last meeting.

Headway is being made.

Join your local TEA party, and do not miss ANY GOP functions.

If Romney gets the nomination, why not go third party ? There would be almost no difference in a Romney or Obama administration. The last RINO, McCain, suspended his campaign to vote yes on a bailout package. And in the process he basically threw the race to Obama. You never know what will happen with a RINO. With a conservative you know exactly what will happen. Conservatives have something that can never be bought. Integrity. Which explains why the RINO leaders hate conservatives.
