Tea Party brews up change for US elections

VIDEO:  In 1773, British colonists fed up with the empire's taxation of imported goods dumped tea into the Boston Harbor. More than two centuries later, that high-drama act of defiance, one in a chain leading to the American Revolution, is the inspiration for a movement which also claims a higher moral ground against what it calls unjust taxes. In addition to its revolutionary fervor, the Tea Party also opposes abortion, supports gun rights and has corralled ultra-conservative positions into a powerful political platform that has taken this election season by storm.
