From NBC's Alexandra Moe For all the talk of the Tea Party's strength - and there will certainly be a significant number of their candidates in Congress - just 32% of all Tea Party candidates who ran for Congress won and 61.4% lost this election. A few races remain too close to call. In the Senate, 10 candidates backed by the Tea Party ran and at least five were successful. (Race in Alaska has not yet been called.) In the House, 130 Tea Party-backed candidates ran, and just 40 so far have won. Identifying Tea Party candidates is undoubtedly inexact. Our criteria, generally, was to include anyone who has either been backed by a Tea Party group or has identified themselves as a member of the Tea Party movement. Toward the end of this cycle, however, seemingly every Republican was trying to associate themselves this way. One left off the list was Dino Rossi, despite Jim DeMint endorsing him, since Tea Party groups backed Clint Didier in the primary. A note to correct the record: After about 20 hours of crunching numbers, one of us on your First Read authors looked up at 4 am and heard MSNBC use a much higher number. We went back and checked, and the numbers are much lower. Here's a full list: SENATE - 10 TOTAL 5 WON - 50% of Tea Party candidates won PA- Pat Toomey KY- Rand Paul FL- Marco Rubio WI- Ron Johnson UT- Mike Lee 4 LOST - 40% of Tea Party candidates lost DE- Christine O’Donnell NV- Sharron Angle WV- John Raese CO- Ken Buck

Identifying Tea Party candidates is undoubtedly inexact. So when has accuracy ever been a factor with liberals?
#3. To: Ibluafartsky (#1)
Every thing I have read indicates the left "feels" they won and are doing just fine. Let's help their party remain unchanged.
