The tea party "leaders" have gotten the message that people are not in lock step with Romney.

Then why not Newt? Makes no sense that so many people don’t even respect Mitt Romney yet focus on him as the candidate. Makes no sense. Romney has Romney on his mind while Newt has America on his.

Maybe many people, mostly women I understand don’t respect Newt, but of the two we believe in the one that has America first on his mind.

They should hold their noses, and vote Newt rather than hold their noses, and vote Romney.

Romney has a shot, only because Obama is apparently stupid enough to send Fly Over America screaming towards him with race riots and hippie infestations, a la 1968.

They don’t have to campaign for Romney, they can campaign against Obama, which is their forte anyway. Its not just Obama we need to fire, its his whole admin, especially eric holder. The Romney admin will likely be liberal, but not the virulent communists and racists littering the obama admin.

Actually, it's the GOP-e that wants Obama. Take it up with them. They are trying to force Mittens on us like they did Dole and McLame.

Fergetit. I'm voting conservative, the GOP can pound sand. I didn't leave them, they left me.

And I will never vote for Romney.

Gonna get Obama anyways. RINOS/RINO policies DO NOT win presidential elections. NEVER HAVE. People seem to be completely freakin ignorant of history. (not you, just people in general, especially Republican establishment worshipers.)

I don’t follow self appointed leaders either, but at least this guy is stating the truth. Nobody wants Romney that is associated with any tea party group.

“The tea party is not going to coalesce around Romney,”

In one of his speechese, I’m 98% sure I heard Romney say “coRalesce” which, as far as I know, isn’t a word. Another dummy potentially heading up the free world.

As a Tea Partier, I’ll vote for Romney, will not campaign for him, and will campaign against Obama. That’s about as good as it gets for us conservatives, I think.

It is perfectly fine and understandable that the Tea Party does not want to endorse Mitt. Just STFU about it then.

It is one thing to not believe in enough of the core principles of a candidate to give your support but only moronic idiots would turn that lack of endorsement into cannon fodder for Mubumbo Odumbo.

The Tea Party, SHOULD have made itself heard loud and clear before and in the early stages of the primaries. That is the time for us to move the big gray elephant back on the right path and away from the seductive Progressives.

Now that time has passed and this is what we have to work with. The Tea Party should now concentrate on getting the most Conservative candidates elected to the House and Senate so they can pull Mitt to the right if he tends to walk into the communist weeds.

Again, Tea Party I love you but, STFU if all you are going to do is attack the candidate running under the GOP banner.

REMEMBER or LEARN that the communist Progressives WILL use every Saul Alinsky trick in his dishonest debate book to get Fearless Reader, Mubumbo Odumbo, elected and they will make use of every attack the Tea Party or any of us directs at Mitt.

For all purposes the Primaries are over. This is who will be running and you now have a choice; Four more years with an anti-American occupying the White Hut and no worries about future elections so he will be free to complete his destruction of the country or a candidate who may not share all or even most of your values but at least does NOT HATE the USA.

The tea party is not going to coalesce around Romney,” Judson Phillips told The Daily Caller on Thursday. “Most of us will vote for Romney, but we will not be out there with signs for him or in his campaign.”

This is just preposterous B.S. Why VOTE for Romney? He does not forward Tea Party principles. This republican party and some conservatives are just cowardly prix!

NO MORE RINOS!

So articulate the difference between the 2. As I see it there is none.

Why don't you STFU about promoting the liberal corruption of the GOP? This Tea Party guy is sending the exact right message. As long as he doesn't endorse Obama, he's all good to me. If we get two bad candidates, I'm going to exercise my free speech to say we got two bad candidates.

a candidate who may not share all or even most of your values but at least does NOT HATE the USA.

I don't care what's in his head, I just care what power he's going to be capable of wielding. A gridlocked Obama for 4 more years will probably implement a lot less liberal policy than an empowered Romney for 4-8 years. Very many Republicans are dying to go liberal with Romney because they either believe in things like homosexual marriage or they believe it will get them more votes. If Obama is in office, they'll maintain their opposition to his policy out of fear of Tea Party primary attacks. While we can "primary" liberal Republicans, it seems like presidential elections have proven too big for Tea Partiers to wrangle, especially against Romney's money. So I doubt we'd be able to primary him in 2016 if we couldn't defeat him this time.

Has anyone read Rule by Secrecy author Jim Marrs? I’m asking because it’s relative to the coming election.
