Vice President Joe Biden late Friday took his road show to California to raise funds for Sen. Barbara Boxer and Rep. Jerry McNerney.

The Boxer fundraiser at the Orange County home of Joe and Sarah Kiani was expected to raise $250,000 for the Democratic senator, who's locked in a tight race with former Hewlett-Packard chief executive Carly Fiorina.

After predicting -- again -- that Democrats would keep control of Congress, Biden went after the tea party, linking Fiorina to the movement that has shook up the GOP this election cycle, and, he said, scared moderate Republicans away from cooperating with the Obama administration and Democratic leaders in Congress. 

“Look up and down the Republican ticket. This is not your parents' Republican party.This is not the same breed of cat, man,” Biden said. “The choice throughout this county is between two philosophies that are really stark, and its one that is especially on display here in California."

Could get down to a matter of who took over who.
The tea party take over the republican party. {Better to take over a party rather than create a 3rd party which generaly looses}

Or did the republican party take over the tea party. {Which I doubt}

TEA Party is stronger in its influence and determination than Perot's Reform Party was back in the early 90's. People foolishly listened to Slick Willie tell them he felt their pain and he'd fix everything for them and they wouldn't have to do a thing for themselves. Kinda like last election's mantra ....... we're living through how well that turned out.
