New Tea Bag Party?

While considering myself as a "tea-bagger", I definitely have a problem with this movement becoming a third party in competition with the GOP. And it has nothing to do with any sort of sentimental or philosophical attachment with this increasingly moderate party. I have watched the Republicans compromise their way out of positions of strength into irrelevance when the opportunity for conservatism to make great strides was available.
This has indeed angered me to no end. But, by the same token, I also realize that the GOP is the only platform of power that constitutional conservatives have to launch real reform in this country. Abraham Lincoln quoted the Bible when he said, " A house divided against itself cannot stand." We are preparing ourselves for a battle against the forces of statism in this nation and the one thing we need to focus on right now is gaining control of the power structure of the Republican Party. If our energies are spent on creating a third party, the movement will be to no avail come November. The most we could hope to accomplish is to make our philosophical point at the expense of an inevitable defeat through a split vote. A liberal or a moderate would win and our opportunity will have been lost.
My point here is to not sacrifice this movement's present momentum on the altar of a historically proven failure: the third party. Look it up in your history books and see where third parties have ended up-- temporary anomalies on the trash-heap of American politics. Let's not allow this to happen to the tea-party movement. It's time to take the Republican Party for constitutional conservatism!

Victory 2010

Scott Brown's victory in Massachusetts is a political seismic event of epic proportions. It is a response from average Americans to an arrogant left-wing regime bent on shoving their Marxist agenda down our throats. And the cataclysm for Democrats has only just begun. Election 2010 has begun with a virtual nuclear bomb and will only be diminished in November if the Democrat leadership in Washington backtracks from their Obamcare onslaught. Will this happen? I doubt it. But one thing is guaranteed....if they ignore this incredibly transparent message from Massachusetts, they will see an anger displayed from hometown America that is unprecedented.
My prediction is that Congressional Democrats will not heed the warning, they will continue their Marxist crusade, and they may even try to delay the seating of Scott Brown in the Senate until a healthcare bill is passed.
This eventuality, if it comes to pass, will be the death-knell of the Democrat Party come November. An incredibly foolish move on their part, but also very predictable given the utter arrogance of the main players in Washington.
With all this being said, it is truely a happy night for American patriots across this great country. God has answered our prayers and maybe is giving us another opportunity to get things right.
