I'm going to be posting an essay soon on this subject. In my view, tea parties are useful but short-term duct tape solutions ( I say that having been a Tea Party attendee.) The true battle is for the hearts and minds of the people. In my view, this requires a long term strategy. The left thinks long term, and though they suffer occasional setbacks, the trend is all in their direction. To counteract this and ultimately prevail, we must adopt long term strategies, generational strategies, whereby we produce a populace that shares our views, and where their interests are aligned with ours. This will occur primarly outside the scope of government, in the free market.
