It took Republicans 12 long years to let power get to their heads and believe that they were better than they thought they were. Guess Democrats are far superior – they only needed 4 years (starting with taking over Congress).
So for the most important issues, it’s nice to see it in an objective format:

Note to Republicans – as Glenn says over at Instapundit: don’t get cocky. As the recent special elections have said, as most of the primary results have said – GOP Establishment types are in the target cross-hairs as well (the latest being Mitch McConnell’s right hand lady, Murkowski of Alaska, loosing to a TEA Party backed Joe Miller).
Your time, objectively speaking, has come as well.
And they kept saying that TEA Party beliefs, based on the Constitution and its Founding Values, were extreme?
I think, objectively and in what seems to be a more quantifiable manner, is that they are mainstream – and that the Progressive shrill use of the word "extreme" is more and more looking like a self-identifying modifier.
