About Frank Rich’s column in today’s New York Times

It’s very true that the Teabagger candidates like Sharron Angle or Joe Miller win their elections the Teabagger activists will get none of what they are hoping for from the Teabagger Republican Candidates. See:
The Grand Old Plot Against the Tea Party
By FRANK RICH
There is something missing from Frank Rich’s column. Maybe he intends to write about it later. The 2% of Americans that really are Teabaggers have guns. Many of them don’t just have guns but are part of small militia armies that in effect are light infantry.
And they Teabaggers have said over and over that if they don’t get what they want, they will start killing pubic officials. In a small way that’s already begun with groups like the Hutaree Militia.
The Teabagger movement looks enormous only when it’s sensationalized and goaded on by Fox News. Fox News has gotten up the hopes of the White Nationalists that I think make up a majority of what is actually a tiny Teabagger movement.
When those White Nationalist extremists don’t get what they want and they certainly will not, I think the violence will begin. And the violence is sure to cross political party lines.
