Do the Tea Party freshmen representatives have to compromise?  They have such conviction, they are carrying the banner for the smaller government, less spending constituency that elected them.  They said they would not vote to raise the debt limit and they did not until "balanced budget" was thrown in.   Boehner is being portrayed as cannot keep his house in order, weak.  They have taken earmarks off the table (thank goodness).

These members have changed the discussion.  Some pundits say they should realize what they have won and be happy.

What should they do?
