Grayson Has Tea Party Challenger
ORLANDO -- Rep. Alan Grayson has a new challenger for Florida’s 8th Congressional District, and this one is from the Tea Party.

Peg Dunmire officially announced her candidacy Thursday. She said she entered the race because she wants to focus on individual rights, fighting government corruption and the economy.

“Fiscal responsibility means that we have to make responsible decision on balancing our budget, and figuring out a way to reduce the $12 trillion in debt,” Dunmire said.

Dunmire, a former Republican, said she is the Tea Party’s first official candidate in the nation.

1. Grayson will stomp her into the ground...
They took a poll with Republicans and Grayson won that poll.

2. Neither Republicans nor tea-baggers will EVER
preside over, come up with, or likewise envision, a balanced budget. Their ideology forbids it. Their ideas INCREASE debt. Proven by Reagan and nitwit bush. They will NEVER create a job. They will NEVER see a surplus. Never.

7. He walked into the viper pit on Sunday.
Right in the middle of the tea bag protesters and engaged them. The man is amazing,

They don;t seem to get that this man is the real deal and is not afraid of them at all.

9. I think in this case it should be, "He is SO going to drink her tea."

6. Bless her heart.
Poor thing won't even know what hit her.


There will be a flash of light, and a loud boom, and be all over in an instant.

8. So is the "Tea Party" a legally recognized political party now? Seriously?
