There was no Tea Party during the days of the 2008 Presidential campaign. This Party was born and started gathering steam the day Obama was elected. Dick Armey had some ideas after he was forced by his Republican colleagues to quit Congress. But then all the racial bigots rallied behind him once they saw a Black man as a White House occupant.

I can bet the Tea Party will cease to exist after Obama leaves office and is succeeded by Hillary. I say so because even though Hillary is a woman, these white Tea Party folks would have no problem because "she is White."
