The inevitable GOP-Tea Party spilt is just around the corner October 10, 2013 7:46 pm BuckGalaxy

Wall St. and the Chamber of Congress are aghast at the Tea Party monster they helped create. They are now pushing the sane establishment republicans to straight arm the Tea Party and end their shutdown and default insanity. The Tea Party on the other hand will accept nothing short of total war against obamacare, and when this ends and they don’t get their wet dream, they won’t blame Obama, they will blame the GOP establishment. The fissures are deep. The divide is irreconcilable. Tea Party Senators and Representatives are leading the charge to primary GOP members of Congress, and now Big Business is funding moderates to challenge Tea Party members! The humiliating double defeat the GOP is on the verge of will finish the job. The Teap Party will officially become a separate party, and the GOP will have to rebuild from the ashes.
