To be honest she is hijacking the tea party for her own economic advantages and possible political advantages. We dont need a leader this is a grassroots movement. I also hope she doesn’t include social issues like,abortion,we are protesting FISCAL issues that BOTH parties are responsible.

Really?

Care to back up that slander with some type of cogent reasoning or are you just a "drive-by" slanderer?

BTW, without the Social Issues you don't have a winning coalition.

Reagan won by addressing all three legs of the Conservative Coalition:

1. Fiscal
2. Social
3. Military or strong Defense


We most definitely need the social issues because a culture that runs away like a coward from doing the right thing on social issues is on a steep downward trajectory to failure.

Furthermore, from a political perspective, I'd say at least 30% of her base, at least, find those things to be of primary importanct.

And lastly, you're on the wrong web-site bub with that kind of nonsense.

Here is what the founder and owner of the web-site has to say about the purpose of this web-site:

...As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty....
