America and the Tea Party: The End of an Affair
The Washington Post reports that America has fallen out of love with the tricorne:
Almost half of Americans have an unfavorable view of the tea party movement, according to a new CNN poll, a 21 percent rise in that number from January 2010.
In the survey, 47 percent of Americans say they see the tea party in an unfavorable light while 32 percent regard the movement favorably.
That makes the tea party about as unpopular as the Democratic and Republican parties.
(The CNN numbers track closely with what the Post found in its most recent poll.)
