[QUOTE="Phillydog1958, post: 219237, member: 8704"] I think there could be a correlation between Tea Party dialogue and the philosophy of some of the old southerners of the Confederacy. As with all politics, there is always the need to try to appeal to the various voting factions, through emotion. We know that most people vote through emotion. Some politicians appeal to religious groups. Some appeal to emotional hot topics such as abortion, immigration, etc . . .. I don't know much about the Tea Party, except for what I see and read in the media, but I don't doubt that there might be a segment of Tea Party members who wish they were in Dixie. I saw a photo op of a man holding a Confederate flag at a recent Tea Party rally. I don't want to offend any Tea Party members who might frequent this forum. It's purely opinion. I won't say anymore about that. :D [/QUOTE]
