Tea Party affiliate Justin Amash has emerged from several trips through the acrid, boiling waters of the government shutdown fight with his Tea Bag wrinkled, pale, and somewhat impotent [politically speaking]. A recent West Michigan poll shows his supporters retreating and there appears to be a primary challenge on the horizon. I was treated to a telephone poll last night asking several questions about social issues;the shutdown, who I thought to be more responsible, and my opinion of Rep. Amash. I thought I detected a hint of fear in the computer-generated voice on the line. I'm sure it was wishful thinking.
The proposed primary challenger may or may not be more conservative than Amash. It is too soon to tell. It is not yet clear whether his opponent will have any affiliation with the dangerous, neo-confederates of The Tea Party. Those guys may just be looking for a brand new bag.
You can lead a Tea Bag to hot water but............................well,were not exactly sure what happens after that.
