It's not necessarily that they can be herded like sheep. The Tea Party is not in power, as they are just a small (you may actually refer to them as a faction) organization that dwell deep inside the ruins of both liberal and conservative belief, but support a more Republican point of few, one that is too radical and too outdated to ever work in present day America. Republicans aren't in power just because all the news you hear coming out of CNN and Fox are about them, they are just a popular group of crackpots at this point. A small section of them can at least conjure up rational and true facts; but the rest are helpless and unfortunately supported by more helpless people (those people, we call Americans and stuff), which will actually result in a very scary election to those who are actually aware of what would be the result of one of the Republicans we have running, winning.
The Tea Party can't be in power because the idea they revolve around is so simple that whenever you ask a member of the Tea Party movement, they can't give you an answer. They just know it was in the constitution at one point in time and that we should go back to that, because it worked back then. But unfortunately for America, Republicans can be in power next year, and if they are... It's frightening to think about who is going to be the figure head of said power.
