Is the Tea Party pulling the GOP too far right?

Today we consider the conversation happening between the Tea Party and the GOP to see if the two groups can converge on the same page.

After the surprising win of Tea Party favorite Christine O’Donnell over veteran politician Rep. Mike Castle, many within the GOP are lining up to endorse her and donate to her campaign. Does this mean Republicans are ready to absorb and back those they previously felt too far to the right?
