The beauty of the TEA party movement is that no one within the movement is seriously talking about leaving the GOP. Rather, all the talk is about recapturing the Republican Party and taking back our country, moving it away from a non-Constitutional, anti-capitalist, redistributive system of social "justice" and class warfare back to a supply side economic, pro-business (read: pro jobs), Constitutional justice, pro-growth tax system (taxable receipts grew by 44% under the "Bush tax cuts") that demands personal responsibility and has supplied this country with its greatest periods of economic growth and individual freedoms.
Understand, that the conservative rebellion effectively manifested itself in the 2006 midterm elections in which conservatives stayed away from the voting booth, allowing the Democrats to take over both houses of government. Again, in 2008, 5 million conservatives refused to vote for the moron, John McCain, giving the election (in part) to Obama wtih his pac of campaign lies. This set of fact, especially the 2008 election, made it clear to the GOP, for the first time, that if they wanted to win elections and stay in power by ignoring the conservative base that is the GOP, go ahead and try. Finally, the 2010 midterms established the voting power of the conservative (TEA party) base and provided - we hope - the legislative beginnings for the ultimate defeat of Left Wing, One World, Socialist governance.
That base has not gone away. They are standing in the shadows watching what is going on in Washington , determined to increase their control of the GOP while shouting out, "Compromise has screwed this nation and we will not allow it to continue."
Know this: "compromise" was the name of the game in GOP politics for years and years. Do not accuse the Right of refusing to compromise. That is nonsense !!
If it had worked, there would have been no rebellion.
