Luckily they dont vote in my state.

"The question was whether Carl Paladino would get a bounce from his big Republican primary victory. The answer is yes," Maurice Carroll, director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, said in a statement. "He's within shouting distance and -- you can count on it -- he will be shouting."

they do indeed vote in your state. The depressing facts are that the tea party has got momentum and enthusiasm on their side. The other side, and in it I include moderate republicans (rarer than white buffaloes) as well as moderate and liberal dems, do not appear to have the energy to go to the polls during this mid term elections and the R's stand a better than even chance of winning a majority not only in the house (bad) but the Senate as well (much much worse).
I agree that diversity makes us stronger, but only diversity mixed with tolerance and the spirit of working together... neither of which the tea party republicans have shown much of... scary times
