If you look underneath the surface of the Tea Party movement, on the other hand, you will find that it is not sophisticated. It's not like these people have read the economist Friedrich August von Hayek. ↗

The Tea Party movement is a wide and diverse group. It will hurt the Republican Party if some elements of the Tea Party decide to become third party advocates because it will split the conservative vote. ↗

The Tea Party movement as I perceive it is all about recognizing the difference between state and federal powers. And that there are limits to federal power that need to be respected. ↗

My presence in the social media and on the Internet is much bigger than many of the other candidates, including Mitt Romney.

Let's be very honest about what this is about. It's not about bashing Democrats, it's not about taxes, they have no idea what the Boston tea party was about, they don't know their history at all. This is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up. ↗

Really it's hard to know where the Republican Party ends and the Tea Party begins. ↗

Unfortunately, the Republican leadership in the House right now seems to have been strangled by the tea party. ↗
