Conclusion: Warning to Tea Party Activists Even Tempted to Vote for Big Government U.S. Senate Candidate Scott Brown

What’s more, if you choose this option, you will dramatically strengthen the Tea Party Movement – and radically increase the number of TRUE tax cut and spending cut candidates on the ballot this November.
