A tea bagger said: “I want my country back” — whatever she meant by that.
Being shouted at by fellow tea baggers, Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham said: “We’re not going to be the party of angry white guys.”
Republican Newt Gingrich said: “If you seek to be a perfect minority, you’ll remain a minority.”
Mark McKinnon, Republican Party strategist said: “If the Republican Party does not expand its tent, it’s going to turn into a circus, and it’s going to become a minority freak show that sort of features Rush Limbaugh and Dick Cheney.”
To paraphrase James Carville: “It’s the demographics, stupid.”
The tea baggers need to get the message — they ARE a minority.
