#1 If the Republicans want to be the party of the present & future then this is the target they need to shoot at.

The biggest selling point for the Tea Party that resonates with the younger voter is the point that crony capitalism, the fascist oligarchs whatever you choose to call them has to be reined in.

The Beltway Bandits buy and sell government. The way to get noticed is to shrink the ability of government to payoff their campaign donors with grants, laws and billions of dollars.

The Democrats use this system to grow their own power and wealth, and to grow the control of their progressive government over everyone and everything.

The Republicans use the system to grow their own wealth and that of their buddies while ignoring the ideological bits.

If the 'pubs can fight their urge to reward their buddies AND push the core principles of individual liberty and responsibility they can make huge gains by making the plutocrats responsible for their damage.

Stop privatizing the gains and socializing the costs.

#2 One of the Tea Party/Libertarian guys at Chicagoboyz blogged a couple of months ago about how he did some quiet outreach to the Occupy-Chicago kids. He reasoned - rather fairly, I thought - that some of the issues that the Tea Partiers were PO'ed about, like a bloated and over-intrusive big government, crony-capitalism and an existing oligarchy calling the shots and subverting the constitution - the Occupy kids were also PO'ed about. He reasoned that the Occupy kids just needed a little nudging in the right direction. He found them to be actually rather receptive, as long as one went about it tactfully. I think that the Occupy kids that he encountered were basically kids ... not the professional Leftard protesters.
