Probably noticing the negative ads that branded some candidates as Tea Party members or fellow travelers, and noticing that those candidates lost, the Will County (Illinois) Tea Party is disbanding and renaming the remnants "fiscal Republicans".
They join the Tennesee Tea Party, the Penn Tea Party, and the Boston Tea Party.
But in recent years, the movement's popularity plummeted, he acknowledged, and its membership was painted as racist "wingnuts."
"I don't understand what taxes has to do with racism," he said.
