Qualified as extremist and racist

The Tea Partiers have much to be proud. Qualified as extremist and racist, they succeeded in forming a coalition that won the most votes, and, incidentally, I chose a record number of non-white Republicans. (The countries will now have two governors Indian-Americans, both conservative Republicans.) Like any political movement, especially a new one, the Tea Party made mistakes. But saw the opportunity to change the direction of the country and had the strength to do so. The Tea Partiers were necessary to elect several new conservative stars like Marco Rubio, Pat Tomey and Ron Johnson. (All three come from states that supported Obama.) Many of those who followed the election of Obama envisioned a Republican retreat southward, act now as if they expected these results all the time. Pass to warn of the disaster the Republicans next time. And certainly there are objections and warnings that the Republicans need to hear, but not today, on our part.
