Sure, it is more of a movement then a party, but here is the fundamental problem with it; they will elect republican candidates who claim they are for spending less, balancing the budget and creating a smaller government. Yet, no republicans actually do this. Just like the democrats they raise the debt, they spend like crazy and ultimately then end up raising taxes one way or another and most of them grow the government.
If anything good comes out of the tea party it will be that maybe they can help support a candidate here and there who will actually do what they say they are going to do and not just lie to our faces then do as they please. Maybe they will end up helping the republicans recapture the house which will force Obama and the democrats to curb their spending to some degree, but I fear the are just the same old thing calling themselves by a new name and we will get the same old candidates that do the same old shit.
