What happened to the tea party influence in the Republican party?

Posted by admin
Hob asked:


If any discernible messages could be taken from the tea party movement it would seem that it was people that were upset about out of control spending and Washington insiders. Yet if you look at most of the Republican candidates (aside from Ron Paul) none talk about specific cuts to the budget and all of them are career politicians. Is the tea party dead?

      Without Koch money the tea party is basically synonymous with Ron Paul supporters.

      the tea party and the republicans are both cogs of the zionist agenda of greed of wall street , corporations ,and the bankers .
      the message is still the same - money grub the last few dimes from the middle class working man - keep at it till all the 99% are economic slaves to the agenda .

      Waning enthusiasm for the Tea Party might be the result of observation of the radical methods which Tea Party politicians have used (or attempted to use) as a way to solve the problems that most everyone agrees needs solved: One needs only to look at what has been going on in the U.S. House of Representatives and in states such as Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio where Tea Partiers have dominated state politics lately.
