The Republicans re-branded themselves as the Tea Party when their popularity was in the gutter--purely as a means of re-branding themselves. Now the Republican brand is back in the sewer (where it belongs) and they're all libertarians (The Tea Party brand is now a scapegoat--and this is clear in the media).

Quelle surprise?
