THEY DID IT WITH SARAH PALIN DURING THE PRESIDENTIAL RUN BECAUSE IF THEY LET HER TALK SHE WAS GOING TO APPEAR TOO RADICAL
And we see how it is happening again; now it is half a dozen of these wing-nuts that somehow with the money behind the Tea Bag Party (coming from the Koch brothers and a few other super rich and corporations) These Tea-baggers managed to snatch the nominations of regular Republican primary candidates and now the Republicans have to live with them. Notwithstanding their radical ideologies and their big mouths, the Republicans have had to step in and tried to smooth out their rough edges. That and to muzzle them somewhat 
and keep them away from microphones or they would put their collective feet in their mouths.
That is why you don’t see Sharon Angle doing interviews, or Rand Paul and now Christine O’Donnell…they learned well from Mommy Grizzly Sarah and would only give interviews if the questions are either submitted in advance or if the candidates wrote them themselves. That and going on Fox where the territory is extremely friendly.
Oh, they get indignant when they are asked difficult questions…they keep saying that “the media” is giving them “got you” questions, somehow entrapping and making them look ridiculous or uninformed. When in reality they are ridiculously radical and way out there on the right and hopelessly misinformed.
Why do you think that the extreme right is so vociferous, so “energized”? It has nothing to do with enthusiasm for their cause or a firm belief in an ideology…when you come right down to it most Tea Baggers don’t even have an ideology…they keep repeating talking points like puppets and they offer no solutions, no real or concrete plans to solve any problems.
As we all know, when a person lacks reason, facts, logic and can’t argue or defend an issue they will yell and scream, becoming agitated and downright aggressive…figuring that if they can’t win the argument they are going to shout their way out of it or drown out any reasonable, civil and logical political discourse. We saw this during August of 2009 when they were “guided” to go in and disrupt all the Town Hall meetings that were taking place.
What I am hoping is that the American voter sees this as a direct avoidance to face the real issues, the hiding of these candidate’s true right wing radical nature and a concerted effort by Tea-Bagger-Republicans to confuse and mislead the American voter.
