In USA support for tea party drops to A New Low

[mucifer]

17% say they consider themselves Tea Party supporters
54%, highest ever, neither support nor oppose the movement
Major drop in support from independents who lean toward GOP

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Americans' support for the Tea Party has dropped to its lowest level since the movement emerged on the national political scene prior to the 2010 midterm elections. Seventeen percent of Americans now consider themselves Tea Party supporters, and a record 54% say they are neither supporters nor opponents.

Republicans made huge strides in the 2014 midterm elections, including increasing their majority in the House and gaining control of the Senate. However, the Tea Party movement that had played such a huge part in the GOP's 2010 election successes was much less visible this time around. Still, several Republicans elected to the House and Senate with Tea Party support have become major players on the national stage, including presidential candidates Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz. The Tea Party movement has also been tied to the Freedom Caucus, a group of conservative Republican members of the House who have played a key role in the current battle to select a new speaker.

The article says that the tea party did have a poll dip before 2011 primaries BUT their numbers did go back up in February.

Lets hope their supporters are opening up their eyes to reality.

1. Do you mean the tea party faction of the ReTHUG party

They are all ReTHUGs. Boehner, McConnell the RNC, the RW Fundies and their media hacks encouraged these racists, anti-women scumbags.
Now that's their fugging up the establishment, they have a change of heart- fuck that. They are all ReTHUGs.
