Former Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann on Sunday defended the tea party movement, saying that it had “been only a force for good.”
“The [Republican] Party has changed so much for the better,” Bachmann told CBS host Bob Schieffer. “The tea party has infused the energy and excitement. And really, it’s bringing the Republican Party back to its basic values, which is limited government, cutting spending, being smart, and making the government more efficient.”
“Has the tea party made compromise a dirty word?” Schieffer wondered. “And is that why Congress can’t seem to get anything done?”
“Not at all!” Bachmann replied. “The tea party has been only a force for good in Washington, D.C., because otherwise we continue to go farther and farther to the left, which is redistribution of wealth. That’s why [President Barack Obama] will be a one-termer, because all he has been about is redistribution of wealth and the rise of socialist principles, and the Tea Party rejects that.”

It has been a source of good, the tea party has successfully divided the republican party, and is slowing crippling the established republicans and leaving a power vacuum behind them which is being filled mostly by weaker less capable individuals serving to further cripple the republicans.
Take a moment and step back from the small picture and analyze the bigger picture, we are seeing a large power shift in our nation and we are seeing a massive shift of ideology in the political right of this nation. Sure in the initial portions of the shift we are seeing the crazies come out of the works, it takes a touch of crazy to start change. Within the next five years I believe we are going to see a brand new kind of republican, and an overall shift in their political ideology. what I hope for is that as this shift starts to stabilize the more radical portion of the new comers will fizzle out and the level headed ones will rise. Historically this is what we see when these ideology shifts happen. We shall see. - 4 months ago

I have the feeling those fringe dwellers will loose steam quickly as the stable begin to surface with real workable plans, things that you can actually sell to the public. Many Tea party members now are just selling social issues, but those issues address none of the big problems that our nation faces and as people start to realize that they will beginning to vote for results rather than cultural pandering. That and the y generation is starting to vote and the y generation is one that studies have shown is a very results driven generation.
