But the tea party itself is splintering.

Huh?
The Tea Party is a philosophy, not a political party.

Political parties can splinter, philosophies cannot.

I consider myself a member of that philosophy, and the notion of leaders (delusional or not) is antithecal both to the spirit and the effectiveness of the truly "grassroots" nature of the continuing movement.

Countering that with just another Soros-funded attack by the "progressive/commuist/radical left is like trying to play "King Canute."

The day I start getting junk mail from the Tea Party is the day I disassociate myself from it. Wait. I just gave the insane left an effective strategy...

...never mind...

I'm a 30 year member of A.A., it has no leaders either and is still going strong after 75 years. It works.
