A liberal super PAC was created in order to ensure ten members of the tea party would not be relected next election cycle. Their reasons are that the ten members are, anti-woman, anti-science, and unfit to be  representatives of our country. They embarrass their constituents with crazy notions which have no place in the modern world, and when their constituents find out they will surely vote the representatives out of office. The first six chosen are, Reps. Sean Duffy (R-Wis.), Steve King (R-Iowa), Allen West (R-Fla), Joe Walsh (R-Ill.), Frank Guinta (R-N.H.), and Chip Cravaack (R-Minn). Four more will be chosen by the members of the super PAC later. To enable them to meet their goal they will mobilize an army of 2.5 million grass roots activists. They will have offices in each of the districts of the tea party ten, in order to meet the constituents directly. They will "take the super PAC model and turn it on its head" (Becky Bond). Instead of having enormous amounts of contributions from a few 'shady' organizations, they will fund raise from millions of everyday Americans. The super PAC will not hold any punches, as it's intention is to drive the tea party members out of congress.
