Don't worry they are about to see who is going to get "tea bagged" this November. I don't believe they realize just how many people they disparage when they insult the tea party. It comes from believing ones own propaganda. I think you'll see many of them have a sudden "change" of heart (seeing some of that now) and try courting them. They don't realize these folks aren't going to fall for the alligator tears.
On a side note: With Specter's defeat, politicians seeking the White House for support should take note: You will be abandoned by Obama when you need him, for the sake of political expediency. He did it in NJ, VA, and now PA...see a trend? RINO's and far lefties beware.
