Pa. grass-roots tea party leaders chalk up GOP wins, return to jobs as moms

The Washington Post reports:
On election night, Anastasia Przybylski and Ana Puig, co-chairs of the Kitchen Table Patriots tea party of Bucks County, savored the spoils of victory, shaking the hand of the congressman-elect, Republican Mike Fitzgerald, and handing him a gift when he stopped by their low-key bash at the Moose Lodge to show his appreciation for their hard work on his behalf.

The next day, the two 38-year-olds returned to their full-time jobs as homemakers. The two mothers, angry over the Obama administration's stimulus package and health-care reform, had stirred up enough fuss before Tuesday's election to help kick one Pennsylvania Democrat out of office and stop another from entering the Senate.
There's more:
Puig is a Brazilian who immigrated to the United States at age 14. She said she got into the campaign because she saw America sliding "toward Marxism," as she believes has happened in her native country.
Ana Puig knows about socialism.
