Despite Primary Loses, the Tea Folks Are Winning the "War"

Battles and Wars in the GOP (Ed Kilgore) from Washington Monthly
"...  the main function of the Tea Party Movement has been to intensify and defend a rightward movement in the Republican Party that’s been underway for decades but has gained hellish momentum since the 2008 elections, regularly overwhelming the efforts of GOP elites to instill some “pragmatic” caution. In that sense, the Tea Folk are winning “the war” even if they lose a number of primary “battles.”"
