The republican/teabagger party is growing like a cancer now. We have a lot
of work ahead of us and we can slow it down or stop it on this election cycle. Money isn't enough now, we have to get out the vote.

7. I hope they keep churning out extreme, polarizing figures. That'll get everybody's
butt of of the sofa and down to the voting booth!

3. I don't know that they're growing
I'm not convinced it isn't all smoke and mirrors. However, the media is bending over backwards to ensure that their voices are the words of reason now, which is so patently laughable that what we really need to do is start laughing at them. Everyone else will join in.

teabaggers (even other Republicans) wanted it.

6. Im not going to get all worked up about them ...
All they are ? ... 'Energized' Republicans ....

They aren't going to significantly increase the ranks of the GOP ... They already ARE the GOP ....

I greatly doubt many of those who voted for Mr. O are going to suddenly join this ragtag band of misfits ....

The sky will not fall, as long as we show up to vote ....
