tea party people don't demonize corporations, we don't fear corporations or other groups that might have a message. we do fear big government however.

i'm surprised to hear this framed as a big government issue.
i'll predict right now that more corporate influence over election results leads to additional regulation designed to limit competition, not less. it'll also lead to additional government subsidies given to the new corporate masters.
the voice of your tea party group is going to matter less in the new election paradigm, not more.
when the government is fully in the pocket of corporations, will you still distinguish between "good" corporations and "bad" government?
