I have no intention of clicking a link and watching that Hairball Clown puke up yet another insanity.

Summarize please?

Nice cartoon, but I couldn’t stomach more than a minute of Chrissy Matthews and that idiot Donny Deutsch.

Let me guess, LeftBall (and the media) are trying to pick who should be the Republican Candidate?

I wouldn’t say we love him. I think many of us could live with him, at least more so than Romney, in spite of the things we don’t like about him.

The Tea Party does NOT like Rick Perry OR mitt Romney. They are RINO’s, and therefore part of the PROBLEM.

Yeah honestly I'm undecided, but this technique is called PUSHING THE BANDWAGON.

Yep. Here we go again. That means, of course, they think they can beat him.

I think Chris’s observation is interesting, and accurate.

For the record, as a Tea Party activist, I love Sarah.

You don’t speak for the Tea Party.

Anecdotal evidence suggests Perry is their choice. But you know what? It’s not just them. They take a lot of the headlines but the social right and just “conservatives” have melded around him quite a bit too. There is overlap between these groups but not completely.

Now as for Chris Matthews I refuse to watch him but will say I don’t love him. I just support him because I think he’s well...not as conservative as me but more so then Bush so it’ ll move us a few degrees to the right from where Bush left off even if not as far as I want to go. And if MMitt doesn’t succeed in destroying his mainstream appeal Perry can win whereas the other options cannot.

I am a Tea Party group founder , organizer and rally leader ,and I am not impressed with Rick Perry .
I see him as weak on illegal immigration .
But at least he is a Vet . I would vote for any Vet over any lawyer any day ....

Agreed. However, we are still hoping for a better choice, right? Maybe Ryan/Rubio. (I keep saying it, hoping it will come true:)

Chrissy hates Tea Party patriots and anyone who might destroy his beloved BO.

What’s not to love about that;)
