That must have pained msnbc to report because it goes against all their efforts to paint them as racist.

NAACP Ben Jealous came on msnbc and said they were not racist also. I wonder if some of the extreme lefties on here will get the message and start threads about policies now?

I think Biden knows that the Tea-Party is filled with average americans and..
He doesnt want to risk the backlash if the race-card is always used against them.

Sure.."average Americans"...don't you mean "average Republicans"?

Conservative Republicans outnumber moderate/liberal Republicans in the general population by about a 2-to-1 margin; among Tea Party supporters, the ratio is well more than 3 to 1. More generally, almost 8 out of 10 Tea Party supporters are Republicans, compared with 44% of all national adults.

Tea Party Supporters Overlap Republican Base

I could show you polls that indicate that a large percentage arent Repubs.
Theres also a good amount of Tea-Party folks that dislike Repubs & Dems.

Never said that. However, the teabaggers are anything but average or representative of America. ..They're nothing but a bunch of Obama hating Republicans masquerading as something else.
