What Happens If The Tea Party Doesn’t Win Big?

Unstable Isotope posted on the laughable poll that shows O’Donnell and Urquhart winning big.  This got me thinking.  These guys, and gals, really, really, really believe they are going to win – and win big.  Take a stroll over to Delaware Politics if you don’t believe me.  On, UI’s thread I asked… The problem is that they really believe she is going to win, and if she doesn’t win then… what?

We may have our answer.

Asked by the host, Lars Larson of Portland, Oregon, where she stands on Second Amendment issues, [Sharron] Angle replied:

You know, our Founding Fathers, they put that Second Amendment in there for a good reason and that was for the people to protect themselves against a tyrannical government. And in fact Thomas Jefferson said it’s good for a country to have a revolution every 20 years.

I hope that’s not where we’re going, but, you know, if this Congress keeps going the way it is, people are really looking toward those Second Amendment remedies and saying my goodness what can we do to turn this country around? I’ll tell you the first thing we need to do is take Harry Reid out.

Larson says Angle was floating the possibility of armed insurrection if Congress keeps it up under Reid et al.

“If it continues to do the things it’s doing, I think she’s leaving open that possibility,” Larson said. “And I think the founders believed that the public should be able to do that when the government becomes out of control. It just matters what you define as going too far.”

Second Amendment remedies?  Take Harry Reid out?  And, no, I’m not envisioning armed armies of tea partiers.  I am expecting more lone wolves.  This talk really concerns me, especially since the only election the Tea Party will ever accept is the one they win.
