What is really interesting about this election is not the conservative turn, but the inclusive nature of rhetoric from the republican party claiming Tea Party elected as their own.
It's very subtle, but if you were discriminately listening to both major parties, as they attacked the candidates representing the Tea party, it was the perfect example of collusion in a two party system, as neither party wants a third party realized in this country, and in that regard they jointly work together to marginalize the third party usurps. Leaving the voting public with the same two headed single body snake.
If the Tea party is to be a rejuvenating force the newly elected need to maintain their independence and not align themselves with the republican party.
Example of the inclusive rhetoric, but when you open the article not a word of the Tea Party is mentioned, in fact its dismissive.
