@Ukit I find this video very interesting. It's of one of those Tea Bag parties, this one in South Carolina. Here we see one of the most rightwing Republican congressmen Gresham Barrett get up to speak, but because he voted FOR the bank bailouts under Bush he is literally booed and heckled for five minutes by this crowd:
So, what you have here is video proof of the schism in the Republican party, one that is being split between the rightwing centrists and those that are more extreme. If you can get one of the reddest of the red congressmen to get booed at an event about whatever these rallies were about in one of the most conservative states in the country? The mainstream Republican party as it is currently constituted is lost at sea.....
