I was just talking about Tea Party candidates with my father earlier today, he said they were going to get in and stop the "trainwreck" that's going on right now. I told him they haven't produced any candidates that didn't seem, at best, flaky. He brought Christine O'Donnell up to support his case. I tried to tell him she was an ignorant laughing stock, but he called me a socialist. Typical political discussion in the southeast.
