Could Rudy Giuliani be the Tea Party candidate?

No, because there won't be a Tea Party.  Party was fun while it lasted, too bad it didn't last through election day.

What do you base this off of? There's no reason to believe that the Tea Party is finished.

Sharron Angle, Ken Buck, Joe Miller, Christine O'Donnell (to a lesser extent).

Establishment creepazoids overperformed, especially that arch-fascist Marco Rubio, [real] tea partiers were destroyed or way underperformed.  A few snuck in under the radar in the house, but not many.

But now what's left of the Tea Party will have to "recruit" candidates.  And the candidates they "recruit" will all resemble Marco Rubio or Pat Toomey or Ron Johnson, and therefore won't even be worth a glance.

Real conservatives are done for.  Sure, they'll run in primaries, Pat Buchanan will still write the occasional column, they might actually win the occasional primary, or even the occasional race, but they're done for and never coming back.  This year proved it to me.
