I’d like to see the record that makes Minnick a “conservative” Democrat.

Have you ever been to a tea party? Have you read the platform? They have said, since the beginning, they will endorse the candidate who will follow the Constitution. PERIOD. They have said this isn’t a Republican or Democrat thing, it’s a PATRIOT thing.

That being said, most of the effort is of course in the Republican party. We were succcessful here where I live to sign up so many people for precinct committee positions which is the first step in taking back the party. But this endorsement is nothing surprising.

If this guy voted for Nancy Pelousy to be House Speaker, he should be voted out of office and should not be supported by the Tea Party.

I am seeing signs of a tendency to focus only on tax issues. If the Tea Party Movement fails to include RKBA and abortion as prime issues it will start fading fast.

"We don't know where the national tea party came up with the endorsement of Walt Minnick," said Russ Smerz of Tea Party Boise. "It's a little concerning to us that Tea Party Express would endorse someone in the state of Idaho without consulting us first. We're not endorsing any candidate at this time - including Walt Minnick."

sounds like a plan.
Tea Party endorses the RAT in any election, Then votes for someone else.

I think for myself, thank you very much. I do not purchase products because a sports legend endorced them. I do not send money to causes pitched by Hollywood actors. I do not vote for candidates that are endorced by movements.

ID-1 is one of the most conservative districts in America. No way there should be a Democrat in that seat. This is outrageous. The Tea Party Express can kiss my patootie.

I don’t know who’s idea this was but if they were smart they would eject them from the tea party and say the endorcement was a mistake!
