Tea Party Splinters GOP

Independents lean in a particular direction, whether it be left or right.  Take for instance, Ross Perot.  George H. W. Bush most likely would have won the election against Bill Clinton  had it not been for Ross Perot.  Ross Perot stole votes that most likely would have went to Bush.  Now today we have the example of the Tea Party.  Those who gravitate toward the Tea Party would have usually went Republican, but are now gravitating toward the extreme right Tea Party as a reactionary party.  Just as with George H. W. Bush, the end result could very well hurt the GOP and their chances to take over the House and Senate, rather lofty goals, considering the current political climate. http://motherjones.com/mojo/2010/09/christine-odonnell-castle-delaware-republican-primary
So the end result could be a repeat of the past.  Perhaps these extreme Tea Party goers should be more mindful of their history, which they claim to espouse just in their continual theft of historically significant  symbolism.  And in their theft of our historical tea party, they pervert the meaning and symbolism that the original Tea Party revolutionaries represent. However some Tea party patriots would claim that is it more about sending a message.  http://www.corydondemocrat.com/Articles-i-2009-03-10-210077.114125_Tea_parties_send_clear_message.html  I admire such principles, however, the message will die if they do not turn the message into action by having members of the GOP in office.  Hopefully, and I cannot deny my bias right here, they will sabotage their own convoluted agenda with these Tea Party candidates like Christine O'Donnell who made a strong showing in the primary, but most likely are too weak to win the election.  As a Kentuckian,  I must admit that Rand Paul will most likely win in Kentucky, however, Christine O'Donnell is a weak candidate for general election.  So Tea Party patriots be ware, you are revealing your inability to think.
