I think a third party situation is a distinct possibility.

Not going to happen. When they elected Boehner as speaker (even though I figured they would) it confirmed to me the ignorance in the Republican leadership. If they were serious about saving this country they would have elected Paul Ryan, Marsha Blackburn or Michelle Bachman.

Boehner is a RINO and is only marginally better than Pelosi.

If Boehner doesn't demand a trillion in cuts over relatively short period of years, abd if GOP nominates someone like, say, Romney, would you vote for a TP candidate, like Bachman, Palin, or Paul ?

That is a tough question, I don't see the TP running anyone. I could deal with Romney I think. I would never ever vote for Paul. Sorry for the non-answer I am just unsure, mainly because I don't see the TP running anyone because it would only split the vote guaranteeing an Obama reelection.

Bachman would be a disaster as would Blackburn. Too conservative for the mainstream

Tea Party members have jumped the shark when they think John Boehner is not far enough to the right for them. It's no better than the far left thinking that Obama isn't far enough left.

Radicals from both ends of the spectrum are dangerous and delusional.

The difference is, the far right every 15 years or so seems to coalesce just enough to wreak havoc on the GOP, proper. See e.g. Perot.

The problem this go 'round is that the deep and immediate cuts to entitlements that the TP would like to see enacted are just not politically possible. And so when Boehner comes back with, "I got us $300 billion over the next seven years," they are going to go ape shiite and turn on him even more.

A number of folks on here don't want to admit it, but the TP is a real problem for the GOP establishment in 2012 and possibly going forward. They are simply going to demand an abrupt stop of what they perceive to be a transfer of wealth from white upper class to black lower class and will not tolerate leadership that doesn't threaten to grind the whole thing to a stop if they don't get what they want.

the actual problem is the idiots spending too much money but it's hard to beat a group voting their own raise. Post your racist crap somewhere else

The TP may be the only thing that save the GOP.

The problem your party has is that we now have the most divisive President maybe in the history of this country, he is far-left, the Senate majority leader is far-left and the last Speaker from your party was far-left. There are very few moderate voices in the dem party, Lieberman was one and he was basically forced out of the party.

Country currently rallying around Obama after the birther nonsense put to rest and getting OBL. If unemployment continues to dip, he'll be impossible to beat and will drag the House along with him, especially if the TP are off in a corner by themselves demanding GOP establishment gut Medicare or SS.

You got it. The whole damn thing is about making sure respectable white folk are better off than the blacks.
