An equal amount of people identify with the Tea Party politics as they do Obama.

If that was true Mitt Romney would be president. Tea Party Repugs live in a world of make-believe that rivals my nephew's. (He is four.)

I don't understand how people can be against fiscal responsibility.

Now I understand that neither Democrats nor Republicans are actually fiscally responsible; but, I still can't believe how leftists can be so vehemently critical against the Tea Party, grass roots or not, for arguing for it. Fiscal responsibility is just common sense.

Have to agree with that. There isn't a huge grassroots tea party base. Millions of privately funded dollars have crafted an image to create the impression that it is some large movement. Ironically this has in turn helped usher in the demise of the Republican party. Like it or not these are the last days for the party. Only time will tell if it will splinter off into extreme/moderate factions or if it will try a few last ditch attempts at getting non traditionally Republican constituents to vote for them.
