Re: Republican /=/ Racist Homophobic Tea Partier

[(Anonymous)]

Ehhhhh. I mean, they won't drive every single non-Tea Partier out of office, but they'll damn sure try. They will primary pretty much any Republican who is insufficiently right-wing, and any such challenger will usually have the advantage of massive amounts of money, and the advantages of gerrymandering and running in an election which only the die-hards are going to vote in. And anyone who wants to please the base of the party will have to be willing to kowtow to them, and that's most prospective politicians. Similarly, they can't drive anyone out of the party, but they will make it as unwelcoming as possible.

I'm really not sure what your point is here, honestly. I would tend to assume that you're defending the idea that non-Tea Party Republicans still have a home in the Republican Party. Here's the thing, though: even if the tendency is not absolute, it is still absolutely the case that there is a tendency towards the outside, and that the Tea Party is trying to make the Republican Party over in its own image, and frequently succeeding, and that this is especially true in the context of national politics and Washington. Even if that's not true on the edges, it's still true in general. The Tea Party is changing the Republican Party.
