More great analysis from my friend, Fred Schnaubelt:
LOCAL VIEW: Tea party and patriot 'movementeers'.
The "movementeers" reject the premise that 50 percent plus one gives any political party a 100 percent say over universal issues. Or that 49 percent must be happy losers until the next presidential election. There's but one way to control government beyond the chains of the Constitution. That's by limiting taxation (taxation which is necessary to fund every conceivable Democratic or Republican self-serving program). The "movementeers'" real, tangible power is in leveraging their 10-plus percent voting bloc to elect politicians who will restore the American free market, private property, limited government principles that have provided more for ever more people in the past 200 years than in the previous 2,000 years.
