I know full well what is happening to these "pure" tea party congress people. There is overwhelming evidence what happens to these people. This guy isn't Paul Krugman and I know it.

Republicans vote for the same people in a different label over and over expecting a different result.

If you haven't been paying attention the Tea Party caucus has been vastly worse than non-tea party caucus in their stances. He is not a breath of fresh air. He is stale 19th century ideas waiting for lobbyists to fatten him up. He's doomed even if he doesn't know it. Washington eats people like this up because they were made to be consumed.
