Carlson on Bachmann, Republican Tea Party

An interesting blog by former Minnesota Gov. Arne Carlson on Michele Bachmann and the Tea Party influence on the Republican Party in Congress.

Carlson contends that only 25 percent of Republicans who control the House are Tea Party members, but they have tremendous undue influence, in his mind, over Republican Speaker John Boehner.

He contends Democrats will have field day with this in the election. I'm not so sure.

I do believe the 2012 election will start very early, and be very deep, and actually will engage people more than ever despite polls that generally show people are very disgusted with Congress.

Will they turn their disgust into action or into despair?
