Surprise! Tea Tantrumers are white male upscale college-educated elitist cranks!

Activists in the Tea Party movement tend to be male, rural, upscale, and overwhelmingly conservative, according to a new national poll.

A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Wednesday also indicates that Tea Party activists would vote overwhelmingly Republican in a two-party race for Congress.

By all means, then, compete away.
