We are here and rocked the boat in 2010 elections.
We are laying and waiting for our prey; the 2012 elections where we will come from everywhere and vote the bad guys out to include OBAMO and MICHELLO..

HA HA HA see ya...

Most of the tea partiers are nothing more than Republicans in sheeps clothing.
They wanted Republicans elected and that's what happened.
That's why you're seeing the numbers have dropped.
I said it all along. This was no 3rd party, it was just Republicans in disguise, but you were easy for me to recognize!

No need to raise a big fuss right now.. we're saving our energy (and leave time) for the big elections.

Don't misinterpret a quiet period as apathy.

Nothing has changed-- we're still fed up, and we WILL do something about it.

Never been to a tea party except my 6 year old daughters. But I support what they stand for. I'm sure sick of the way these elected officials are spending us into oblivion.
