I don't think we get a Tea Party with a President Hillary. And the Tea Party drove the recent debt scare and the 2010 House win for the GOP.

It wasn't policy that drove the Tea Party. It was racism cloaked in faux patriotism

Bull, the Tea Party was driven by Washington suddenly thinking a $1.8 trillion deficit was hunky dory. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:25 19

  - Anti-tax isn't pro-deficit when they're also anti-spending. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:30 11

      - See, your problem is that "=$0" part is a total strawman. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:35 9

        Who's talking about the overall debt? - Ender Aug 23, 13:39 7

        And yet that level of deficit spending was significantly less than what started the Tea Party. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:54 5
        
        You can say however much you want to about how bad things were under Bush, but the fact remains we never had a trillion dollar deficit until... - Ender Aug 23, 13:56 4

        In Nov '08 the FY 08 deficit was scored by the CBO at $455 billion. The shit didn't hit the fan until '09. - Ender Aug 23, 14:11
        
        ergo, the Tea Party caused the increase in the deficit!!! -- nm - znufrii Aug 23, 13:58 1

- And that started with Obama? -- nm - Jim Aug 23, 13:27 4
  - Before they took power the Dems were bemoaning $400 billion deficits. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:28 3

      - The total public debt has been neither $400 billion nor $1.8 trillion in quite some time. -- nm - Ender Aug 23, 13:36
    - sure, when it went toward tax cuts for the rich and a war of choice against an enemy who hadn't actually attacked us. -- nm - znufrii Aug 23, 13:33
