I disagree.  In this country of "low information voters" all it will take is a couple of 6 o'clock news stories and she is done.  The majority of voters in this country do not care enough to research issues and learn the truth.

Only about 50% of the US population votes though, so you dont need to win over the masses, the GOP needs to get down with the Dems and play dirty and get better at organizing vote busses and give money/boons to the sympathetic but apathetic people to vote just like the left wing does. When you talk about voters you are not talking about the majority of the country. It's more about the side that can mobilize as many people as possible using all means at your disposal. Even though in an ideal republic such measures should be unnecessary to get people to vote.

Absolutely Wrong! The Founders were Classic Liberals, the opposite of today's liberals, which makes them aligned with the Far Right as in Tea party Conservative.
The Tea party movement aligns itself with the Founders, leaning Libertarian, like the Founders, the Tea movement believes in a small, less intrusive Govt, quite the antonym of the progressives of today, where they want to grow Govt into every aspect of our lives, the exact opposite of the Govt structure the Founders created.

No. He is on the same board as Vrede (John Barth) and picked up some of her talking points.

That's not a knife. It's a chicken bone he has been gnawing on for a few hours...

But in essence I do agree with you... The right-wing SCOTUS's Citizens United decision is the worst thing to have happened to our election system .. that is until the recent gerrymandering underway at the hands of Republican hooligans.. ...

You posted donor data.  Great.  What does this have to do with union control and influence on elections?

I thought I was clear in that I have no idea what would inspire someone to be far-right.. my best guess was that it requires a detachment from reality.. same could be said of far-left.. ..

If you're looking for a definition.. I'd say it was a mash-up of disorganized Libertarian notions magnified through a distorted Conservative lens.. .. 

Does that answer your question...?

You really have this down...

the Tea movement believes in a small, less intrusive Govt,

Yes and with the Articles of Confederation the Founders tried small government only to find that government under that document was ineffectual.  It was South Carolina's Charles Pinckney that recommended the expansion of government by way of a new constitution.. They then clandestinely met and penned our present Constitution creating a larger, more powerful central government.   Today, Conservatives would accuse them of supporting large government.. .. .

where they want to grow Govt into every aspect of our lives,

Do you mean like the DOMA... .

There are indeed individuals that would like to see a more socialist government than we now possess just as there are individuals that would relish having no government at all... . 

However in demonizing everyone left of Palin, I'm afraid you've fallen for the alternate reality created by right-wing corporate shills.. .. We are not as far apart in our wants and needs as you've been led to believe..

So according to you limiting the size of government to what is outlined in the Constitution is considered supporting big government. Hilarious.
