The reason to have a vote on the BBA even if it will not pass is to demonstrate the actual position of the Dems to voters who will then elect conservatives who will support and pass it.

Right. As I said all along. Nothing but political posturing for the next election. Worthless and meaningless.

So, politically, do you think a vote for a meaningless doomed fake balanced budget amendment is really going to help politicians who just voted to borrow and spend trillions more?

What percentage of real regular folks who consider themselves part of the Tea Party in any way supported any raise in the debt ceiling?

"What good are "Tea Party Congressmen" who vote to borrow and spend trillions more dollars?" and "What percentage of real regular folks who consider themselves part of the Tea Party in any way supported any raise in the debt ceiling?"

Amen to both comments. In lots of ways I'm madder than last week. Didn't think that was possible. . What a mess. . November 6, 2012 can't come soon enough.
