Gallup surveys tea partiers

And guess what? The tea partiers are representative of the United States--not just all old white guys, no matter what you've heard. Read a breakdown over at YID.

In several other respects, however -- their age, educational background, employment status, and race (yes RACE) ,Tea Partiers are quite representative of the public at large. This is slightly different than the Winston poll which projected that the typical Tea Party member was older than the general public.
