John McCain unloads on the tea party | The Ticket - Yahoo! News: "'The idea seems to be that if the House GOP refuses to raise the debt ceiling, a default crisis or gradual government shutdown will ensue, and the public will turn en masse against . . . . Barack Obama,' McCain said, quoting the Journal article. 'The Republican House that failed to raise the debt ceiling would somehow escape all blame. Then Democrats would have no choice but to pass a balanced-budget amendment and reform entitlements, and the tea-party Hobbits could return to Middle Earth having defeated Mordor.'
'This is the kind of crack political thinking that turned Sharron Angle and Christine O'Donnell into GOP Senate nominees,' McCain added, still reading from the article."
