WASHINGTON New Hampshire Tea Party movement activist Andrew Hemingway is not lacking in contact with likely presidential candidates. Hes talked hockey with Tim Pawlenty. He sat down with former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum at the Concord Country Club. And plans are in the works for Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour to appear before a group of Hemingways fellow conservatives.
the notable exception among the field of would-be GOP presidential contenders? Mitt Romney.
Romney for the most part is inaccessible, said Hemingway, a Bristol resident who is chairman of the states Republican Liberty Caucus. Pawlenty, I could call him right now and say, Lets have coffee.

LOL!
Ironically, the tea party will likely keep away from Romney.
Hopefully..
Unfortunately Romney may be too far ahead in NH for it to make a difference.
FUMR! Go away and hide forever... please..
The GOP knows how to stop this but I think they have their heads so far
up their collective butts they will reject all possibilities of
any conservative hopeful just out of spite.
Put a fork in him, he’s done..
McCain was already a well-established favorite in NH, a repeat candidate there who had tied up the local GOP politicos early.
Romney is in a similar position in the state now, as well as something of a favorite son.
Gee whiz, you’d think Slick Willard could spend 5 minutes just to feed them some bull$hit about how he supports their causes. He usually never passes up an opportunity to lie to the crowd.
My point is that the GOP dropped the ball purposely.
You must remember, or you were to busy.
My point is that the NH GOP were McCain people in ‘08—we’re really saying the same thing.
/SALUTE
The piece of shit only talks with libs!
Mitt ‘I want to buy the world a coke’ Romney. Has Mitt hired all the McCain campaign douche bags yet?
For the Vietnam war--while he had the good fortune to hide from it in France
against abortion-while he voted for it as Governor
againt gun control--while he was for the Brady Bill and the assault Weapon Ban
for military service as long as it wasn't him or one of his sons serving
against raising taxes but for raising fees
against Obamacare even though it was called Romneycare before it was called Obamacare.
for conservatism but against the tea party
I'm not voting for him. Let him pour his daddy's money into an election campaign. Maybe he will go broke doing it and we won't have to put up with him anymore after this.So long as we can take the Senate, I will be perfectly content to lose the white house. With control of both houses, I have no doubt that we can make the birth certificate issue stick and with it, impeachment charges. That sounds infinitely more satisfying than putting up with President Mitt Romney.
All Primary’s need to be held on the same day so that all Americans get a chance to pick the candidate they want to be President.
The New Hampshire Primary is BS when a bunch of Yankee voters who think Conservatism is liberalism warmed over get to pick over the candidates first.
New Hampshire does not represent the thoughts of the average Conservative.
Haley Barbour and Pawlenty are RINOs
Furthermore, Romney is INVESTED in attacks on the Tea-Party and Gov. Palin.
Well I guess it’s over then. Listen, great post. I’ll call the other 69,000,000 of us and let them know you called the election off and Romney will be the candidate. Good work!
I’m basically ignorant on the subject but what’s stopping a red state or states to have the first primaries/cauci?
Why in the world should voters in little Maine and Iowa have so much power? Let Texas go first followed by another red state.
