From a recent Gallup poll…
Further confirmation of the Tea Party’s influence as a long-term force to be reckoned with has come in a new USA Today/Gallup poll, which shows the Tea Party virtually neck and neck with President Obama in terms of voter opinion on who should influence government policy. The poll is yet another humiliation for a presidency already on its knees.
The conclusion certainly epitomizes the typical Boulderites opinion of the Tea Party movement.
No doubt the Left’s sneering approach towards the movement will continue, but the message the Tea Party conveys – small government, lower taxes, reduced public spending, free enterprise and individual liberty – will increasingly capture the hearts of the American people in the lead-up to 2012, and will pose a massive threat to President Obama’s re-election prospects.
Talk about 24 square miles surrounded by reality.
