Boston, MA Mitt Romney today announced the support of Tea Party leaders in Michigan.
In my campaign, I have fought for the conservative principles of lower spending, lower taxes and less government intrusion into our lives and our businesses, said Mitt Romney. The Tea Party has been at the frontline of this same fight. Along with the help of these Tea Party leaders, we can defeat President Obama and finally get Washington out of the way.
Maribeth Schmidt, Co-Founder Of Rattle With Us: As a mother of three and a Tea Party activist, my main concern is the 15 trillion dollar debt and I believe that Governor Romney has it right when he says that he will look at every government program and ask two questions: Can we afford it? and if not, Is it important enough to borrow money from China for? His positions on the national debt, Right to Work, domestic energy, and reducing the wages of government employees to match the private sector are why I am supporting him in Tuesdays primary.
Dennis Moore, Founder/Former Director-Willow Run Tea Party Caucus: Leaders lead without putting a wetted finger in the air seeking consensus. Mitt Romney will be a Reaganesque president. I could not in good conscience watch as the Tea Party invokes a litmus test that Ronald Reagan himself would have failed. So I led by personally endorsing Mitt Romney. This country needs Mitt Romney!

When someone buys support, I tend to wonder which one in the deal is more stupid.
It’s getting to the point where Romney and his supporters are nearly as non compos mentis as 0bama and his supporters. I swear, they all suffer from the same delusions.
Weak Tea. Tea you want to spit out.
Such a liar!
I question this big-time, especially after the last midterm election.
For those who didn’t hear, we had Democrat party operatives posing as “The Tea Party,” filing notices for people to run for office without their consent, forged signatures AND the violation of a Notary oath (I used to be one, so this REALLY grates me the wrong way, especially when they got off with a wrist slap).
I call foul on this BIG time.
That ain’t no TEA. I smell donkey pi$$.
You make an excellent point! I sure hope so.
We’ve seen so mnay people bought off by Romney in this election cycle, I’m beginning to understand what President Truman said about Congress being President: being President is like being a piano player in a whore house.
I assume he meant everyone in Congress was for sale.
I am really not surprised because I recall one of the Tea Party leaders in Michigan, saying last year,
There is only the TEA party tsunami on election day that you ‘never saw coming’. You won’t see it coming this November, either.
They seem to infiltrate everything. Maybe someone should infiltrate BACK and try to bring the Dem Party back towards the general direction of sanity.
Absolutely right! The Tea Party Movement is grass roots with no leaders. Those who claim to be are liars. However, the media is eager to anoint some as leaders when they are not.
Wow, Romney?
Romney must’ve offered them a lifetime supply of peanuts.
I am stunned...
I Don't have a home and I am on my own...
I have been here with another id for years that I gave up when I worked 2 jobs while caring for a ill sibling. My spouse has been here a long time. Yes, I saw the TP guy on Fox business saying this/so, I say, they were given promises. Too many people are buying into the electable factor. imo.
Yes, I saw the TP guy on Fox business
Only the TEA tsunami in November.
I heard Beck interview Santorum yesterday on GBTV and Beck asked him “You know there is a split in the tea party don’t you? Some are with the OWS crowd!” Santorum said “yes.” They are including the Ron Paul supporters in the tea party.
Effing traitors.
We already have a narcisses in the White House we sure don't need a repeat of that.
Not Tea Party. So called self-named TP leaders.
There are NONE! The TP is a sentiment not an
Organization.
