His loss not indicative of Tea Party power.

I think Americans are growing weary of gutter politics. When Ted Cruz goes mainstream and people see how disgusting he can be it will be all over. Hillary will eat him like a pudding snack pac

Hillary is the definition of gutter politics. Saying they they were dirt poor when they owned several million dollar mansions, that doesnt resonate with main stream america. She has a lot of dirt and no real credentials.

The tea party is just riding the way of dissatisfaction in politics right now. Once true libertarianism gains a foot hold and all the old farts in the tea party die off it will be so long good night for the tea party. They are not attracting the any of the younger followers that they will need in order to have any long term relevance. The younger crowd is waking up to the fact that the two party system is a total fraud but they are not joining the tea party.

Interesting fact, the Tea Party was started by Ron Paul 9/11 truthers and it was co-opted by Fox News into what it is now. I am sure a lot of the so called tea party posers are absolutely oblivious to that.

She has had a lot of lies and slimy accusations slung at her by people who have no dignity, but I think her popularity speaks for itself. I won't be around when Libertarianism starts destroying America, so I don't really care.

Yes, popularity, now there's a reliable measure of someone's moral fiber...

Hilary was, to quote a recent article, a big Iraq War supporter; voted for the Patriot Act; opposed gay marriage for years, reversing course only in 2013; and took hundreds of thousands of dollars in speaking fees from the Wall Street firm Goldman Sachs, and that's just relatively recent stuff. Just change that pesky last name, and she could run on the GOP ticket.

As unlikely as it is, I'd love to see Elizabeth Warren run in place of Hilary Clinton, and give the oligarchs coronaries.

You toe the party line dont you? You were taught that made you a good boy and that you would be rewarded for doing so maybe? I swear the problem with party government is that people have no spine.

Name one outstanding thing Hillary Clinton has done that qualifies her to be the alpha monkey in charge of the most powerful nation on the planet. The current president didnt have any qualifications either and were seeing what that has gotten us. Libertarianism is already starting to destroy the world. Since Colorado legalized pot everyone in the entire state died over night, didnt you hear?

A puppet with a money hand up her cooch telling her what to say and do. Meet the new boss same as the last only the names are changed. Honestly Dox, they believe that if they just ignore that stuff it doesnt exist, reality is powerless on some people.

Preaching to the choir on that one, partisanship is a hell of a drug.

I would add that what's at work is cognitive dissonance, where reality departing from someone's conception of reality is too painful to process, so their brains "interpret" reality in such a way as to avoid internal conflicts.

Hopefully, THAT Cantor will be remembered long after the Republican hack has gone to his grave.
