Dean Singleton, owner and publisher of the Denver Post, and bigwig in the Associated Press, was interviewed this afternoon on the excellent Caplis and Silverman radio program. Singleton said that if the Tea Party continues to wield the influence it now wields in the Republican Party, the Tea Party will be the single reason why Barack Obama wins in 2012! Singleton pointed to Delaware, Colorado, Nevada and Alaska as four states that would have gone Republican in Senate races if the Tea Party had not played such significant roles in those states. Singleton's point is that America is a centrist nation that will reject extreme positions, whether left or right, once the people realize where their politicians are on the continuum.
What do you think?

I think Singleton has been drinking koolaid. Who can be against lower taxes and smaller government? That's it. That's all the tea party stands for. Anything else anyone tells you has been drinking koolaid. Are there some nuts that jumped on the bandwagon, sure. Every party has those. What the MSM has done to one of the most electrifying movements in our history is shameful. And Singleton ought to go talk to the people in the movement. We're not even all conservative.
