    Today Is The Tea Party’s Moment

    This is the day of reckoning that the Tea Party has been aiming for ever since Santelli’s Rant. Ousting RINOs is good. Ousting House Democrats is good. Ousting Obama is best of all.

    Except the Tea Parties have not really come out in support of Romney.

    On the cusp of the 2010 elections, Tea Party activists described their movement as a check on a Republican Party that had betrayed its conservative principles.

    “The beauty of the Tea Party movement is watching it hold Republicans accountable,” deceased publisher Andrew Breitbart told Reason.com at a “9/12 Tea Party Rally” in 2010. “These people are not going to stop holding their government and elected officials accountable, especially those that claim to represent their values.”

    ...But as 2012 approached, media figures like Breitbart began to call for compromise.

    “None of these people is perfect,” he said of Romney in a February Buzzfeed interview.

    “From my perspective, there are too many people holding the conservative movement to an impossible post-2009 Tea Party standard,” Breitbart said.

    If anything distinguished the Tea Party from other political factions, it was their willingness to vote against unacceptable conservatives. When Republicans pull the lever for Mitt Romney on Tuesday, they’ll bring that brief tradition to an early end.

    The time for just talk is done. Active recruiting of friends, relatives, co-workers and congregations is now critical. Be the Indy Voter making the difference. 7,501 groups formed. 3.5 million FB. Take back your schools, communities and country.http://www.freedomworks.org/

    Yet social and economic alchemists on the progressive left press on, arrogantly believing they, despite overwhelming historical and real time evidence to the contrary..can turn collectivist lead into utopian gold - Webrockk

    He is? Besides a lot of liberal media saying it all I can find is "the Tea Party Express" supporting him, and that's a PAC and about as Tea Party as Bachmann's Tea Party Caucus.
