At the end of the day, if the sole politician used here to defend the Tea Party's influence is a Republican in Kentucky, that's pretty weak. Both "movements" are ridiculous and won't really change anything at the end of the day. br |

If you don't understand the relevance of the guy endorsed by the Republican Senate Leader (from Kentucky!) losing to the Tea Party candidate, then I'd have a better chance of explaining the relevance of land to a fish. |

1 seat...in Kentucky. Seems like a lot of national effort for such meager pickings. In reality, what we saw was the usual pendulum swing. Where the Teabaggers will fail is their lack of understanding that the majority of the country wants this to get balanced out. Extremists have buried this country. It's a big reason why there are no compelling candidates running on the "Republican-side." I'm ready to vote for one, but none of them give me any reason to. Of course, Obama isn't really either....maybe it's time to make a call to the bullpen and get Tom Hanks. You'd just feel anti-American not voting for him. br |

brian....Rand Paul is a United States Senator...that makes him one of the 101 most politically powerful people in the country....to act like he's just some "also-ran" from some hillbilly state like Kentucky is disingenuous at best. |

Are you saying that every senator is more politically powerful than the house majority leader? Really? Individually, a senator only makes a difference in a 49/50 vote. |

each senator is at least as powerful as the house majority leader....it takes over 4 house members to equal the voting power of one senator. I can see now that I have been back on the board for a few weeks, you are settling back into your role of opposing my simply for the sake of opposition....this is a great example of such, and the reason that I quit posting last time, and will likely do so for good next time. |

Do whatever you want. If I can't ask you a simple question without it turning into a personal affront in your opinion, then what is the point in posting and responding? |
