which group came out on top?
http://www.cnn.com/
poll on CNN front page...
you have a choice between Democrats, Republicans, and...the Tea Party...
Excuse me?
Since when is the Tea Party its own entity? We're going to let Republicans pass the buck for this bullshit?

1. It's so 'scientific' I wouldn't lose sleep over it.
Kinda 'splits' the tealiban votes in 2 also.

2. Yeah, no kidding.
If you combine the Republican and Tea Party choices, its pretty clear most people think the Republicans came out on top.

5. not the point
the point is they're separating the tea party from the repukes
the tea party IS the Republicans...there is no political party called the tea party

7. The "ownership class". Everything else is just theatrics.
The Idle Rich, once again, rule the day.

Will you have fries with your gilding?

8. Lately on MSNBC they've been saying 'The Republican Teapary' quite often
all the talking heads on all the networks need to call them The Republican Teaparty 'every time' they refer to them :)
