Then this week came rumors (accurate it turns out) that Jamie Comer, the Republican candidate for Agriculture Commissioner, had hired Lexington Tea Party leader and blogger Mica Sims to organize a grassroots get-out-the-vote effort in the fall campaign. As the rumor spread in Republican circles, phone lines burned up and David Williams, the Republican candidate for governor, reached for heartburn remedies.
Many believe the Tea Party is a temporary phenomenon. Im sure of only one thing: at least for the present its especially dangerous for Republicans to underestimate them.

Just change the word "Republican" to "RINO" in the article and it is much clearer.
The RINOs haven't figured out that it's time for them to form their own third-party of milquetoast ruling-class swells.

RINOs have three choices:
Become an official 'Rat.
Get under the bus.
Go get a seat at the back of the bus.

The Tea party is as temporary as the first one was. It will become as bloody as the first one too if these elitists don’t take heed.

“...the moderately conservative columnist for the New York Times and a protégé of modern conservatisms founder, William F. Buckley”
Interesting tactic here. He says “moderately conservative” to get us hooked and saying RIGHT-ON. Then, in the same sentence, he links him to Buckley.
My friends, Buckley was THE inspiration for Rush...Buckley was not a “moderately conservative” person - he was a CONSERVATIVE.
...now I’ll read the rest of the piece.

Screw it, I read enough.
The idea that Obama will give the Republicans the store, if the Republicans would only yield on a few, tiny, targeted, tax increases pretty much blew the credibility of this crap out of the water.
Ain’t going to happen...but the bigger question is: Why doesn’t the MSM ask Obama why these little, tiny, loopholes are so important - as to risk the solvency of the country on.
That seems like a more reasonable question to me.

The GOP just spent two decades purging Reaganism out of the party. I don’t think they care too much for the Tea Party.

I am starting to think that, if there is a third party, it will be the Republicans that are the smallest of the three.
Think of the Whigs after abolitionist Republicans got Lincoln elected.

(IMHO) this guy, is just another so-called "mainstream" Journalist.
(read Obama Propagandist) working in Frankfort, similar to "Journalists"
who work for the Louisville Courier Journal and Lexington Herald Leader.
