McClintock in the Tealiban's bag?

  What with Mariposa County being hard hit due to the shutdown of Yosemite yesterday, how will the
voters feel about Tom McClintock, Tom Berryhill and Frank Bigelow in the next election?

   McClintock was part of the now defunct Tea Party Caucus from California and yesterday he spoke on the House floor to continue the shut down unless the President agrees to give up on insurance for the lower income population.

   Berryhill and Bigelow appear to be in the basket with McClintock and the Tealiban, unfortunately. While moderate Republicans struggle to even admit they are Republicans, many are leaving the party in droves, either to become NPP or join another party.

   The embarrassment and humiliation of the right wing and Tea Party to what was at one time the Grand Old Party is now endless, and it could well be the downfall of the entire party.

   However, hardline Tea Partiers say they don't care. Perhaps there should be a third party; all we know is that something has to give.

Will anyone with a chance run against McClintock?
