Politicians trying to get votes wherever they can possibly find them? I’m shocked!

The Tea Party I attended last April, politicians were encouraged to come, but not speak. The event is to hear US, not them. They need to be there to shutup and listen.

If they were smart they’d just throw their own tea party and invite folks over.

These candidates better make sure they are to the right if they intend to cozy up to Tea Party supporters. This just proves that they haven’t learned anything and they think they can use people the way they have always done in the past.

Another example of the OP(formerly the GOP) trying to hijack the tea party movement.

Right! It should (and ultimately will) be the other way around.

Ha!

I haven't even heard of "conservative" democrats seeking Tea Party support.

1 "DINO" in the Illinois House, Jack Franks, whom conservative Tom Roeser recently called "probably the smartest, most astute, most character-endowed Democratic House member," recently used the "teabaggers" slur.
