"Want to become a congressman in a conservative district? Then perhaps you shouldn't run as a Republican. A national poll which gave respondents three choices -- to support a generic Democrat, Republican or Tea Party candidate -- put the Tea Party candidate over the Republican, 23 to 18 percent. Democrats led with 36 percent; 22 percent were undecided. The Tea Party isn't even a real party. However, a few more polls like this and things might change." - Steven Perez from Bookmarklet
