The movement known as the tea party was riding very high after the 2010 elections. Many people thought they would either be a kingmaker within the GOP for 2012 or perhaps the start of a third party movement. Neither has happened. The GOP ends up with Romney - definitely NOT a tea party type of person.
I would like to hear the thoughts of the politically savvy here as to why the tea party was relatively inactive - especially as a national movement achieving a goal - so far this year.
Did they make some mistakes? If so what were they?
Or did they play thinngs just right?
