Quayle reveals the truth
Dan Quayle, interviewed just now on Fox: (approx quote)
"The Tea Party is a movement, not a party. It doesn't have a leader and doesn't want a leader. Most of its members are Republicans, but plenty are Dems and independents. It doesn't want to become a party like Ross Perot in 1992. If it moved toward becoming a party, then I'd be concerned."
Hear that, TP folks? Until you become an organized formal party, nobody is concerned about your desires and views. Therefore your views are precisely meaningless. As long as you remain an amorphous 'movement' you are easily manipulated and co-opted, just as the hippies were manipulated by the Dems in 1968.

Watching today's rally for McCain, I realize it's a lot worse.
Think about this.
Manchurian Candidate McCain was the REASON why a Tea Party seemed necessary.
MC McCain is Mister Wall Street, Mister Big Tent, Mister Open Borders, Mister Liberal, Mister We Do Not Torture, Mister Global Warming, Mister Close Guantanamo Now, Mister Censor Political Hate Speech, Mister Affirmative Action. Overall the veritable Heart of Gramscian Darkness. Absolutely indistinguishable from Comrade Obama, except that Obama is more pragmatic, less ideologically rigid.
And now the R machine has shaped the TP movement into rallying for McCain.
This would be the equivalent of Mayor Daley persuading the 1968 hippies to rally for Strom Thurmond or Robert Byrd.
Those events didn't happen. We were malleable, but not THAT malleable. ¶ 9:00 AM
