the folk i've talked to who are active in the tea party share an incoherent sense of Something Being Horribly Wrong that despite their personality and political differences **none** of them can articulate either in it's specific causes (beyond the idea that Something Is Wrong) and still less in terms of plausible solutions (beyond RUN AWAY). it doesn't make them individually stupid people. what it does is shows what happens when you put people in a movement predicated on a debilitating, stupid ideology---or in this case something that's not even clear enough to be an ideology.
