Tea Bags, Wind Bags, and Moneybags

[SecularMotion]

So let’s say you’re a Republican politician who’s been working the far right side of the political highway for years, getting little national attention other than the occasional shout-out in Human Events. Or let’s say you’re a sketchy business buccaneer with a few million smackers burning a hole in your pocket, and you’ve decided that you’d like to live in the governor’s mansion for a while, but you can’t get the local GOP to see you as anything more than a walking checkbook who funds other people's dreams.

What do you do? That’s easy: Get yourself in front of the loudest parade in town by becoming a Tea Party Activist!

2. Any splinter-group that divides the Republicans is welcome in my book.

Let them sing in the streets, let them field their candidates, let them play their fifes and drums. We win.
