America's Third Great Awakening

Glenn Reynolds argues that the Tea Party is America's Third Great Awakening:

And the biggest action item that she presented the crowd with wasn’t to support Sarah Palin, as most politicians would have asked, but to challenge incumbents in primary races. Primary battles aren’t “civil war,” she said. They’re the kind of competition that produces strength in the end.

I think that's right. As for Glenn's argument that the Tea Party is America's Third Great Awakening, only time will tell.
