Poll: The sagging popularity of the tea parties

A new Washington Post/ABC News poll includes questions about the tea

parties that have the nascent movement's popularity slipping badly.

Overall, since the last poll, the percentage of Americans who hold an

unfavorable view of the movement has jumped from 39 percent to 50

percent. The leading edge of that has been a collapse in support from

18-29-year-olds. In March, they had a positive, 43-38 view of the tea

parties. They've swung hard to a negative view, 27-60.
