Coakley vs. Brown

Sure. Here's one of a man showing one of the ever-lovely "Proud to be a Teabagger" buttons. It took .24 seconds to find this example on google and there are plenty more.

You really think that old dude has a sense of the urban dictionary level of the term?

I think the wikipedia article does a nice job with an overview of the terminology: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tea_Par...22_controversy.

I don't think one sees "teabagger" in the media because the Tea Party members are typically using it. I think you see it because people use it to disparage the Tea Party folks.
