This group discussion should really have gone with the title: Anybody BUT Mitt Romney.
Chris Mathews of MSNBCs Hardball had a table discussion Monday, June 27, 2011 with both Freedom Works Action Matt Kibbe and the Tea Party Patriots Mark Meckler.
To the credit of Mr. Mathews, he conducted a very in-depth table discussion with both Mr. Kibbe and Mr. Meckler in regards to the pulse of the tea party movement and how it could very well shape the course of the direction of deciding who will be the next GOP Presidential candidate for 2012.
While the talk focus on Mitt Romney and Mr. Romney being the front-runner at the present time, other names came up such as Tim Pawlenty and Michele Bachmann. While it is early, because of the special nature of the 2012 Presidential elections, time is more now than ever is of importance for other possible front-runners such as Texas Governor Rick Perry, (R/TX) to come to a decision.
Another thing I do give Mr. Mathews CREDIT in all this is how he conducted himself during this table discussion, without doing any verbal attacks on either Mr. Kibbe and Mr. Meckler. Maybe for a change Mr. Mathews might have learned a little bit more from the tea party movement.

I am surprised that Mathews did not touched upon Ms. Palin, but oh well.
Uh...I turned off this discussion because Matthews started it by saying Tea Partiers had spit at members of Congress. That was all I needed to tell me about this portion of the show. Glad it hear it improved.
Anybody BUT Mitt Romney. Very surprised, coming from Hard Boiled. Romney is the best Demcrat in the race, and was approaching “media darling” status like that of John ‘Maverick’ McCain.
