Sounds like a worthy goal to me!


Although dozens of Republicans sailed into office with the help of the tea-party movement last year, finding a self-identified "Tea Party Republican" on Capitol Hill is harder than you'd think.

The first meeting of the Senate Tea Party Caucus on Thursday attracted just four senators - out of a possible 47 GOP members - willing to describe themselves as members. The event was as notable for who wasn't there than who was.

• Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., once a tea-party darling, has for now declined to join the caucus, whose first meeting was organized by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky.

• Sen. Ron Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican whose campaign sprang from the small- government movement, has passed for now.

• Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., showed up to address the group of activists Thursday, but then hustled out of the room, ignoring reporters' questions about whether he was in or out.

None of this surprises me^^^

Jeb's man in the senate Rubio has a 6 year term. The scam has been sold, and know he knows he can do whatever he wants.

And these people still won't admit that they have common ground with Rand on issues like the Patriot Act, the drug war, foreign policy, etc. They just focus on the issues that they disagree with him on.
