"13% of those surveyed self-identified as members of the TEA Party." Among that group, McConnell "leads Grimes 87%-5%."

In addition "nearly a third (32%) of those who did not self-identify [as Tea Party members] indicated that they were sympathetic to the views expressed by the TEA Party."

De facto, 40% of those surveyed are Tea Party. They just all don't identify as such. Think that doesn't frighten the (D)Marxists? Think again.

Of course it does. They’ve been attacking the Tea Party since it’s inception and tried at least twice (The Coffee Party and Occupy Wall Street) to supplant it.
