The Hill ^ | February 17, 2014 | Juan Williams

Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnel (R-Ky.) are now in position to end the Tea Party’s death grip on the Republican Party’s political future.

[snip]If the nation’s credit rating, stocks and the recovery went down the sewer because of Republicans’ refusal to raise the debt ceiling, the GOP’s chances in the midterm elections would have been severely damaged.

The Tea Party will change into a new force—undreamed of at this time, but the seeds are planted and only needs blood to grow. It will be a new force upon the land.

Believe it or not.

Sunday afternoon I attended and video documented the inaugural meeting of the CT GOP Tea Party Caucus. RTC and state central members were present.

The Tea Party controls about 30% of the Ct GOP.

And the best candidate for governor, Joe Visconti from West Hartford, is a 5 year Tea Party activist.

In this video Joe goes head to head with State Senate Minority Leader John McKinney from Fairfield, at an RTC debate Sunday. McKinney was one of the architects of the harshest gun law in America, and he claimed he saved our guns.

CT Gun Candidate vs Gun Grabber Candidate Joe has nationalized his campaign. Today the Hartford Courant (the oldest newspaper in America) in its editorial compares Joe to Wayne LaPierre of the NRA.

Who really cares what the liberal Juan Williams wants? The repubs and the demodummies are still afraid of the Tea Party and all Williams wants is the repubs to do the work of the demodummies. Typical.

Juan doesn’t need to tell the republican party what it already is doing - tamping down the Tea Party.

I have often said here that the pubs have no problem with the IRS harassing the Tea Party. Now Pat Cadell has brought it up, and Rush mentioned his comments yesterday.

Juan is one of the main reasons I stopped watching Faux News.
