So what exactly is the real message of the tea parties? And how large an impact will they have on the upcoming elections? These are just a couple of the questions I posed to my old friends Rick Santelli and Lou Dobbs on last night’s Kudlow Report. (Of course, Rick’s rant on CNBC a little over a year ago helped launch the whole tea-party movement.) We also welcomed David Webb to the show for the first time. David, the co-founder of TeaParty365, is a big tea-party player. I guess you could call it a tea-party trifecta.
