*Always* call these politicians "Tea Party leader/favorite/strategist," etc.
Considering the fact that the Tea Party remains ridiculously popular with the most rabid and dedicated of Republican primary voters, while being detested by pretty much everyone else, we should make a point of calling such Republican contenders as Bachmann & Perry “Tea Party favorite (or darling) Michelle Bachmann,” or “Tea Party favorite Rick Perry.”

Obviously we should also emphasize “Tea Party spokesman/leader/favorite/strategist Eric Cantor,” etc.

We should always emphasize how much the Tea Party loves these guys and how these guys are leaders of the Tea Baggers—and the ones that come up with so many of their disastrous tactics.

2. Teapublicans and Toilet Paper
Every Republican who bowed to the Tea Party's demands and tantrums is a Teapublican. The Republican party is gone.

The Tea Party is TP - full of crap - and they need to be flushed.

3. Gee, that means I have to drop my other descriptives?
I would almost bet the Repugs won't even mention the Tea Party as we near 2012. It is slowly disappearing. Only their odious actions linger on.

5. Exactly. We have to tie them very tightly to the Teabaggers, because the fact is that
Teabaggers--or as they try to get us to call them now, the Tea Party--ARE merely rebranded Republicans, despite their claims to the contrary.

Now that their TP nonsense has made everyone hate them, they will try to dissociate themselves, but we must not let them.

The fact that Democrats never worry about being primaried by Teabaggers while Republicans do is in itself sufficient evidence that Teabaggers are Republicans, not a mixed group.

4. And each non-bagger Republican should be referred to as a "Tea Party Enabler."
Every Republican should be connected back to the Teabagger movement, directly or indirectly. The "non bagger" faction of the GOP should never be allowed to disassociate itself with the baggers, because they allowed the baggers to take over. Republicans consist of Teabggers or Teabagger enablers. Period.
