If one gives money to the Tea Party is it considered a political contribution?

[Winterblues]

The Tea Party is not considered a real political Party like the Democratic or Republican Parties are or even the Green and Libertarian are.. If it does not have to be declared as a political donation then it can be unlimited and not subject to campaign finance laws...Is that a loop hole Republicans have found..

1. It may be registered under the FEC as a political action committee (PAC)

and subject to regulation.

2. What if the Tea Party then gives...

those funds to candidates that are running on the repug ticket?

Miller, Angle, and O,Donnell are all repugs now

Only little kids play 'tea party'
