Welcome to the (Tea) Party

Winning sure feels good and today Republicans and specifically conservative Republicans feel great. In race after race, in virtually every state conservatives were victorious in last night's elections.

Of course it didn't take a full day for the liberal media to try to downplay last night's results. They point to the Tea Party candidates that didn't win; Christine O'Donnell, John Raese. Obviously we want all the conservative candidates to win but those losses cannot and will not take away from the enormous gains made by conservative Republicans.

In dozens of states, Republicans took control of state houses or strengthened their existing hold. Alabama's state house is in GOP control for the first time since Reconstruction as is North Carolina's. Republicans have a super majority in Texas. With redistricting coming up, the importance of this cannot be overstated. With just two short years until the next presidential election, having so many GOP governors will be nothing but a bonus.

Those loudmouth liberals in the media are already talking about how everyone must compromise now. The Tea Party winners and the "establishment" Republicans will have to compromise with each other. The Republican controlled house will have to compromise with the Democratic Senate. That's crap, total crap. Winners don't compromise. They don't have too. Winners set the agenda, make the rules and control the game. That's a fact.

Everyone has been put on notice. There are 21 Democratic Senate seats that will be voted on. Most are held by radical liberals who backed Obama's agenda to this point. They know they will be held accountable by the same people who brought us last night's results. There will be 10 Republican seats up for grabs. Many of those are held by people who have two years to decide if they're conservatives. If they continue to waffle they'll find out how much staying power the Tea Party has. Of course there will also be a presidential election that year as well.

Don't let anyone tell you the Tea Party didn't make a difference. So many people laughed at the Party. Look who's laughing now. So keep laughing and let's hope this movement continues to grow and continues to lead this country back to true conservatism. You can believe in what you just witnessed or continue to be overtaken by it. Either way, the Tea Party will continue.
