I still will continue saying the Tea Party makes a mistake by not having a MEASUREMENT SYSTEM in place that we could all monitor. All they need to do is state their stance and how that stance would be displayed on each piece of legislation. Then sign up for GovTrac or something and start measuring what these people are doing. A little conservative/liberal gas gauge-like graphic for each candidate. If they know their lib vote is going to be seen, they might change their ways. And it wouldn’t be an opinion, it would be a fact. Imagine what that graphic would look like for Lindsey Geaham who says he will be running as a conservative. His gas gauge graphic would be on EMPTY.
The TEA Party is not an organization, it does not have leaders, there is no mechanism in place for anyone to decide what the TEA Party thinks or will do.
If there was a central organization, the left would have probably destroyed it by now.
It doesn’t stop you or anyone else from doing this, it could catch on and become a prime source of information for the TEA party masses.
