If McDaniel doesn’t get the election results overturned, the Democrat needs to win that race. The Tea Party needs to show the Republican establishment that if they want to play hard ball, our side can do it harder.

The TEA Party showed it’s power when Scott Brown took “Kennedy’s seat.” They showed it even more when Brown lost his reelection bid without their support.

That’s partially why the GOP hates the TEA Party. That’s too much power in the hands of “the unwashed masses.”

DL, what exactly is the "Tea Party?" Is it organized? Can I join? Change my registration to it? Does it have a Party Platform Beyond The Platitudinous? PPBTP? If I buy a "Tea Party" bumper sticker, who gets the money? Or is this a sort of Senior Citizen answer to the Justin Bieber Fan Club? What?

I am serious. I really have no idea. I welcome answers. I am the guy that is looking not so much for a "party" but a Program that will need a fully developed and committed PLAN to implement it, and of courseA LEADER or LEADERS to hold it all together.

What I am getting is one harrumphing "conservative" sound bite after another. The ONLY good programmatic idea I have heard in 5 years is Mark Levin's idea for a Constitutional Convention of the States, no matter which party is in the ascendancy.. Great Idea! BFD! Where's the implementation? Where are the Republican Governors? Where are the leaders in the State Houses, i.e., the people who under the Constitution are supposed to be running the country?

2014: Anyone who can say "Not Democrat" should lead to victory in the House and Senate. BFD! Where's The Plan, Stan?
