The IRS debacle. A tax strike would cause a cycle of Social Security and food stamps to be delayed, and even confused old people and urban minorities would understand who hung them out to dry. The Democrats would join the Whigs in the dustbin of American history.

But most of the country doesn't agree with the Tea Party's revolutionary ideals. Lots of people don't consider it a 'scandal' at all. I don't believe the vast unrest and civil revolt the Tea Party wants would actually manifest. Consider that the Republicans have had their share of scandals, illegal wars, and their own turn at the wheel using the IRS to investigate their political opponents. They're still around.
