What I took away from the article is the cynical but probably truthful point that the Tea Party movement is doomed.

Not that the Democrats or progressives are going to triumph in any way, but that the establishment system is playing the movement for chumps. It's incredibly depressing when you think about it. He's saying that this movement isn't a pendulous swing to the right, but instead a manufactured slide of the middle class slide into poverty and powerlessness.

No wonder his tone is so sour.
