Tea Party Denies Claims Of Racism And Then Writes A Letter

Mark Williams, Tea Party Express Chairman, puts pen to paper to prove the Tea Party isn’t racist, and ends up proving they are.  Simply stunning.

Crist Pulls Ahead In The Polls

I’ve been watching Florida very closely mainly because it’s one of the most prominent tests the Tea Party will face.  And while a lot can happen until the election this can’t be good news for the “purge the moderates” group.
