    Save us tea party...you're our only hope (none / 0) (#1)
    by Rougman on Thu Feb 23, 2012 at 11:58:30 AM EST
    We need a new breed of voter because we will never be able to produce a new breed of politician in sufficient numbers without applying leverage.  

    Politicians in general will always do what they have to do to survive in office, even if that means ignoring economic truths.  The perks are too great, the fame too intoxicating, the power too complete (and corrupting) to allow for the average citizen representative to eschew a good smelling frying pan of smoked local pork products--and the votes it might motivate.  

    Given that, I believe we need citizens who are willing to draw a line in the sand because politicians will not do so on their own.  The tea party is our only hope--a large yet loose coalition of voters finally willing to look at voting records (or published philosophies of first time office seekers) rather than spending election cycle after election cycle concentrating on nothing more than the letter behind a candidate's name.
