If Mitt Romney wins the Republican nomination for president, Tea Party activists may not show up at all to vote in the general election, one leading group associated with the Tea Party movement is warning.
I think thats a potential problem, said Matt Kibbe, FreedomWorks president, during a wide-ranging interview with reporters at The Daily Caller.
He also warned that if Republicans nominate another John McCain, activists might even vote third party in 2012. I believe in redemption, but at some point, you sort of give up, he said. And weve given up on Mitt Romney.

Me neither. ;-)

Hope you are well :)
hi
That certainly may be true, especially if 1992 was any indication. Desperation drove many to Perot, electing Clinton in the process.
Greetings!
Um, no...We'll just write in PALIN.
Hello Colonel. Thanks for the points. I’m keeping track, you know. ;-)
Here’s hoping that you are well, too.
Everything’s ship shape around here, thank you.
So what's the point, then? We vote in the Primaries, but we are told the candidate is selected without our votes.
Then the party expects us to elect the candidate they chose for us.
I wrote inn Tancredo last time around.
“Just go ahead and slit your wrists now to avoid the rush after your lack of civic responsiblity re-elects Obamination.”
IF you are trying to suggest that it will be our civic responsibility to vote for Romney then you are going to find very quickly that you are not welcome here.
It is certainly not MY civic responsibility to vote for that liberal ass clown. And I will NEVER do so.
“You have to know how to cultivate your image among diverse audiences and know when to keep your mouth shut.”
Oh good grief.
THAT is exactly what is wrong with the Republican party and with THAT attitude they can NOT win.
Not stay home.
If the GOP takes SOROS-ROMNEY, then
every conservative will work to end the GOP forever.
[stay tuned here for followup]
The time for waiting for GOP integrity is OVER.
Welcome to FR, RomneyBOT.
Watch and see what we post exposing your pro-murderer,
pro-terrorist, backstabbing (on his better days) Master.
First of all I have been on Free Republic since the 90s but moved and couldn’t access because there isn’t an way to change things when your email provider is out of business.
On the issue of RomneyBOT, I am more of an independent thinker and voter. But the bottom line is immature idiots who think that staying home won’t reelect Obama are fools. I hope to GOD that Romney doesn’t get the nomination, however, if the only choice is Obama or Romney, I won’t slit my wrists, stay home or facilitate the reelection of the Mooselim Obama who is out to destroy the very fabric that the country used to stand for.
What irritates me is the years I served so that you would have the opportunity to make choices and you don’t even want to take that opportunity. Stay home, don’t vote your conscience. Welcome to the DEMORAT Party it is just the trap that they hope you will fall into.
The Republican party has become a joke, but it is still better than the alternative. Use your vote, elect conservative Representatives and Senators, that is where the power is, not in the White House.
Or just stay here attack anyone who disagrees with you and some day you will lose this forum as well. “Swoop of the Pen Act of law, ain’t that cool.”
