"Teahadists" -- will it catch on?
In the Daily KOS article http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2011/1/21/937886/-Romney-steers-clear-of-tea-party">Romney steers clear of tea party, Jed Lewison uses the term "teahadists", which I haven't seen before. Is it appropriate? Perhaps it has some potential to replace "teabaggers."

5. Here, yes. In general, no. ObamaCare sure caught on fast and stuck though.
Why weren't our economic troubles ever called the "Bush Recession" because that would have been accurate?

6. It already has at DU, I see it here often. Has a nice ring to it because they are pretty much

fundamentalist extremists who want to oppress everyone but themselves, and support terror all over the world.

8. I don't see any good reason to replace "teabaggers." They chose the name themselves! (LOL) nt
