Tea Party finding its limitations in most states.

There is no doubt that in most states, if not all 50 states, the Tea Party has taken the GOP from the moderate Republican Party of last 50 years. Most, if not all, of the elected officials in the GOP have now gone far to the right to ensure the GOP nomination. But tonight's GOP primary in Tennessee was just the latest proof of the limitations of the Tea Party.

In states like Tennessee, Mississippi, and even Kansas, the Tea Party is finding, at least at the state level, their brand of conservative, low taxes, Bible believing governance against women, and anti-immigration tendencies not only aren't acceptable to Democratic and Independent voters, but that many GOP voters don't want that kind of governing. This is why the moderate wing of the GOP, sometimes called the business wing or the establishment wing of the party, has won so many GOP primaries this year.

It's a very bad sign for the GOP/Tea Party that to get the nomination of the party, a state or national nominee has to go so far right that they are unacceptable to a majority of Americans. The Tea Party can continue as they are and stop the country from moving forward through Gerry manned districts and filibusters in the Senate, but that won't last long, with the changing demographics in the country. So unless they change their beliefs, they'll not only never truly govern the country, but will pass through history like the Whig Party: A footnote in history no one 100 years from now will even care about.
