I don't doubt many of them are independents. I just have yet to see them support anyone but conservative republicans. Their actions speak louder than poll responses do.
Maybe that will change. I assume the movement will grow and the republicans will hope to ride it back into power later this year. If that happens and the republicans fail to deliver on their promises will we see the tea party suddenly lash out against them? I guess only time will tell, but I won't hold my breath to see that happen.
