Charles P. Pierce on Skocpol and Williamson's Analysis of the Tea Party

Sometimes the obvious needs to be pointed out. From Pierce's blog at Esquire.com.

The Tea Party is nothing more than the hard right wing of the Republican party, rebranded by the more conservative end of its corporate wing. It's approximately as "new" as the 1964 Republican national platform and, that being the case, will disappear again as soon as another Republican wins the White House.

H/t Atrios.
