The “tea party” platform is that the government should live within its means, and promote prosperity by cutting taxes and enabling the private sector to grow. What’s the problem?
Arguably, the frum community should support the Democrats in return for their generosity (albeit not with their own money) when we schnorr for handouts. However if we are going to stay in the US for a while, we would be better off with a stable government and a growing economy – which is why we should support the “tea party”.
