Hope this becomes the rule, and not the exception.

Don't let the door, hit you in the arse, on your way out Bob.
Quote:
The race for Utah's Republican Senate nomination provides an early, if imperfect, test of the tea-party movement's power. Many delegates, who tend to be more ideological than the average GOP voter, said they felt Mr. Bennett had been in Washington for too long. Populist candidates criticized the senator for trying to increase the scope of government by voting for TARP to provide funds to rescue strapped banks and by co-authoring a health-care plan with a Democratic colleague that included a requirement that individuals buy insurance for themselves.

Tea Party cleaning house, hopefully McCain will lose his primary also.

It'll only work if the win the main election in the end.

It can go one of two ways - either they'll prove themselves a viable voice or they'll have bitten themselves, and the entire Republican Party, in the *****.

I guess I just don't see the heresy in Bennett's actions that would have justified him losing his job, but thems the breaks I guess.

Haven't seen the Tea Party people longing for the Bush domestic agenda, they want lower spending.
