15. Voting from the heart instead of the head
I'm from DE. and O'Donnell won over the incumbent who'd been there for years. I have tried to figure out the Tea Party supporters and it's like they are voting for a deacon in their church. You may not be smart but your heart is in the right place. Look at all the stuff that Palin says and as far as Bachman is concerned the revolution started right there in Concord, NH. The blog from Roger Ebert had a good line in it. "Despite the dogma of the Tea Party that the government must not invade our private lives, they have no hesitation in dictating what we may do between the sheets."

I think quite a lot of the voters are very sorry they took on the Tea Party and that being Right could be so Wrong! Isn't this why we broke away from England in the first place??
