I'm bored with the "tea party", I'd like to see some kind of a platform from. . . somebody. And no "I'm mad as hell!" is not a platform. Neither is "smaller government", it's a general concept, but these people just sound like they're just bitching in general. Ehh. . . well, if they get a few more republicans out of their seats, cool with me.

Thanks Kasz, now will anyone go by something like this? Or will the majority of the tea-partiers just be resorbed into one of the big 2? Oh, and if people campaigned on a "I'm going to balance the budget, and here's how. . .!" platform, they'd have my bloody vote.

I imagine the second... right now they're just endorsing Republicans and Democrats who agree to follow said platform. 

It could happen either way though, for it to really stick they need some more leftwing fiscal conservative/social liberal people to join the movement, so as to tame the social issues for whenever they become an issue.

Or as I like to call Fiscal Conservative/Socially Liberal people... sane people.  Ok, not really, but the majority of people I know fall in that category... yet nobody speaks for them.  So many rich and influencial people fall in that area too, just none of them are in politics... they're all in buisness mostly.
