Did the TEA Party get President Obama Re-elected?

The tea party did nothing to help anyone, and they continue to lie and divide.

Not one bit - absolutely none - of their talking points were accurate, nor were they helpful. They denigrated women, racial minorities, young adults, the working class, the elderly, the poor, and EVERYONE to the left of where they sit, including moderate republicans.

Worse, they tried to use their newfound loud voice to institute dangerous policies that could have ruined the country.

Their time is passing. Soon their disinfo-filled Ministry of Truth - Faux News, Limbaugh, Breitbart, etc. will go the way of Alex Jones. They'll be relegated to the same level of attention as the tinfoil hat crew.

The other 80% of us will do okay.
 
It seems to me that if Mitt Romney had not been forced to pander to the TEA party in order to get the nomination, he could have presented himself consistently as a moderate conservative.

Instead he appeared to be a flip-flopping B.S. artist which made many Americans feel that they did not know what type of President he would really be. This uncertainty surely caused an awful lot of 'undecideds' to vote for President Obama.

So it seems that the single most important goal of the TEA Party - to prevent the President from getting re-elected - was undermined by themselves!

The irony is incredible!

:badgrin:

You're right on the money. The TEA party can sway micro elections in districts and in some states. When taken in the macro, they wield much less power which is fine. The same can be said for a lot of entities. The problem the GOP has with the TEA party is that the Meat Cutters Local 9876 in Ypsilanti, Michigan doesn't bother anyone outside of SE Michigan. They don't have an image problem or a reputation for being anti-minority.
The TEA party does. So in states like Texas, TEA party support is great. In other states; not so much.

OKTexas thinks it is OK for Reagan to act like a liberal but not a liberal like Obama. Not very consistent is our OKTexas.

The message is clear. Reagan, who raised taxes three times and cozied up to Gorby and raised the deficit 16 times, would be to liberal for the flacks on the far right today.

Don't need the crazees on the far right. Buh bye.

You appear to have the alertness and foresight of the cat in your avitar, can you ever make an intelleget remark.

Pro-Tip: If you're going to insult somebody's intelligence, at least learn how to spell intelligent. :lol:

Liberal? The conservatives are fond of calling it Socialism; what Reagan and Obama have done/are doing.
 
That's because the far right are illiterate on terminology.
