At a Democratic leaders press conference on Thursday, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said that House Republicans are too “afraid of the Tea Party” to pass immigration reform, adding that the reality is that the Tea Party’s power has already “peaked.”
The New York Democrat and longtime immigration reform supporter said that House Republicans are led by false anti-amnesty rhetoric from Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, and conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh. Schumer noted that recently ousted House Majority Leader Eric Cantor is the only member of Congress that the “minority” Tea Party voters were able to remove from office.

Winner Ratcliffe touted self deportation of illegals.
Lee Terry won by 6 points by painting his opponent as a Rubio or Jeff Flake. Fiscally conservative and pro-amnesty. They still are trying to get rid of him with a third party.
Walter Jones with the help of Laura Ingraham defeated beltway insider Taylor Griffin against 1 million from Adelson and Ricketts.
Doug Lamborn survived by 6 points when he touted he has never supported amnesty for Dreamers or any other group.
No incumbent would want to be in Thad Cochran's position. Thad Cochran doesn't even know what is going on this week so he has no stress.
What,the Tea Party peaked earlier this month? Isn’t it a bit too early to reach such a conclusion.
vaudine
I wouldn’t want to be in Thad’s shoes. He could be looking at jail time if the massive voter fraud is linked back to him
Chuckie is dumb as usual. No, the Tea Party hasn’t peaked Chuckles. They’re just getting started. I wouldn’t take Democrats for granted on amnesty Chuck. Blue collar Democrats know who’s going to bear the brunt of the wave of illegals and I think their opposition to shamnesty is only going to grow. A dumb, useless New York liberal is the last person I want to be lectured by.
Schumer is the lowest of all Nazis ever to have lived. What a scumbag.
Thad won’t go to jail. He doesn’t even know what day it is.
Can Thad’s rainbow voters get immunity if they can tie to the bigger fish?
LOL! ChuckU
We’re just getting started.
Big talk Chuck. That’s all it is, has-been.
Fornicate that bastitich.
If the Tea Party has peaked, why do the dems keep talking about them?
His ilk don’t subject themselves to the peons, they just foist the illegals amd their crime and disease on us.
Haven’t we heard this epitaph before?
Just useless mumbling by a politician who knows nothing of what he speaks. He must have been feeling neglected and knew the MSM needed a story so he threw them a bone.
Chuck, you ignorant slut...
NUTS
Hey Schumer, you wish! You just can’t wait to see the GOP to self immolate by immigration. You know exactly what will happen if GOPe decides to go ahead with amnesty in any form. Unfortunately for you Chuckie, the GOPe knows too.
