this is what you are hanging your hat upon?!?!
The Boston Tea Party was not a reference to a political party OR a political movement but the word PARTY was a descriptive term of the activity taking place as an event.
So is the Tea Party a political party like its name implies or the event like in the Boston Tea Party?
It became known as the "Tea Party" movement as a throwback reference to the Boston Tea Party (note, the Boston Tea Party was not a political party either)
