Tea Party Warms To Romney
Talking Points Memo ^ | 4/18/12 | Kyle Leighton

Posted on 04/18/2012 5:02:41 AM PDT by Haiku Guy

One chunk of the Republican electorate has proved an incredibly fickle voting bloc, denying party unity while the nominating process dragged on. It’s the same group of conservative voters that went from candidate to candidate, looking for an alternative to former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.

Now, out of options, it seems that those who identify themselves as tea party supporters are finally coming home to the presumptive nominee.

Don’t be more of a republican coward than you already are. You’re a Romney flying monkey shill now, whether you want to admit it or not.

Our anger right now should not be at the GOP-E and Romney. They were just working to get what they wanted.

Our anger should be toward Palin, Gingrich, DeMint, and even ourselves as Freepers because we did not come up with a plan to rally behind one credible conservative leader early in the process. We are the ones who got played and we need to suck it up and make sure it doesn’t happen again. Taking our ball and going home is the recipe of ideological libertarians and look at their success.

We can take over the GOP. We’ve already got a great start if we don’t fold now. There is one extremely big difference between Obama and Romney even though they both suck. Romney is a wuss not an idealogue. That can be played into the advantage of getting more things passed by a conservative congress. Obama will just be a blocker who continues his hate America agenda.

If Romney sucks it up bad enough in his first term and defies the right, we can throw him out in a primary battle if we learn the right lessons from this primary season. It’s the conservative leaders that screwed us over, not the GOP-E.

"Yes Black liberation theology encompasses anti-white propaganda mixing a black version of christianity with Islam. It call for violence against all whites you know the very people that created this country and most of the science, and technological advancements throughout human history. I am against it 100% and against anyone that defends it."

Who's defending black liberation theology? I also noticed you missed my point about the mormons. Are you trying to change the subject? Getting frustrated because you can't defend the bogus claim made that the "Tea Party Warms to Romney"? Because if you are it isn't going to work. There is NO DIFFERENCE between obomba and romney. Changing the subject will NOT change this fact nor will it get us to jump on-board with romney. Been there, done that. Remember McSkidmark? Remember George (Read my lips) Bush Sr.? Remember George (Spend more and grow the size of government) Bush Jr? Remember Bob Dole? Remember Gerald Ford? I do. I'm sick and tired of voting for scumbags simply because our scumbags aren't as bad as their scumbags. In this case romney makes it quite easy to say enough. If he's the nominee he will NOT get my vote nor will he get the support of most Tea Party members. I don't care how much smoke you try to pump our a**es romney is NO DIFFERENT than obomba. To paraphrase one poster from earlier on... Why change devils when I already know the one I've got?

Honestly you're shillng in the wrong place. Newt's our guy here on FR. If you don't like that then that's your problem.

"Fine, stupid is as stupid does and you guys are stupid."

Thanks for noticing. I am stupid. I have never claimed to be anything but stupid. I am stupid enough to believe in absolutes. Like I absolutely believe in good and evil. I believe in black and white. I am too stupid to believe in grey areas. I am too stupid to grasp the concept that good is evil and evil is good and quite frankly I don't want to. Living in the real world serves me just fine thank you very much.

"Enjoy more of obami’s marxism."

Why? Newt hasn't dropped out yet. I don't see obomney garnering enough delegates to win the Republican nomination outright and if he doesn't by the convention then even Sarah Palin or some unknown candidate could step up and be our nominee. I can still be optimistic that neither obomba nor his twin brother romney will be in the White House for another four years. I understand how this stupidity those like me possess really irks you elitists but have patience with us. We're happy believing that there is still some good in the world. We're happy believing that some how, some way someone is going to step up and offer to be our knight in shining armor. Someone much better than me and those like me, with the integrity and intestinal fortitude to do what's right, will take the reins and guide our nation back to a place where all men can live free and unencumbered by pompous asses in the government and their excessive government regulations.

Oh I know... I'm stupid for having faith in God and for believing that perhaps, this one time, the citizens of the United States of America will repent for allowing a piece of s*** like obomba to capture and enslave our country. I'm stupid for thinking that Americans are smarter than you obomneyites give us credit for and we are NOT going to allow either obomba or romney to continue to lead us down this globalist path of destruction.

Yup... I'm stupid.

"Just check my posting history and you will find that I am a solid conservative, but I'm also a realist."

I'll bet that's the same line Benedict Arnold used in his defense for betraying his neighbors and countrymen. But what do I know? I've never wavered as a Newt and Sarah supporter. In fact when I am the member of a team I support that team with everything I have. Somehow I don't think you'd understand but that's ok. romney's going to need all the help he can get. I know I won't vote for him and I don't know anyone that says they will.

I’m glad you agree.
You are obviously happy to have 4 more years of obami. That makes you stupid.

That’s a false argument that is a re-hash from 2008. No more suck it up deals for a lesser evil. Romney and the GOP can pound sand.

I understand your point of view, but I really don’t see any realistic way to get past the race hustlers, and the general dumbed down nature of what our country has devolved into. I’d like to think there was some hope for us, but I just can’t see it, and frankly I’m ready, willing and able for what is coming.

Classy.

I ignored this at first but the tenor of remarks on this forum has deteriorated to the point that I decided to report abuse on you.

What place does a phrase like you used have in any rational discussion?

Just as there is no honor among thieves, there is no chance at rational discussion with liars.

If you support a liar, you support deception. There is no chance of discussion.

Hit the abuse button all you want, it won’t change the fact that you are a supporter of Romney and his deception.

It does not matter what you buy. What you have bought is Romney and his character which is 180 degrees from that of the Party of Reagan.

"I’m glad you agree."

No problem. I'd rather be stupid than deaf and dumb.

"You are obviously happy to have 4 more years of obami."

Really? I don't recall endorsing obomney. Of the two of us I'm the only one stupid enough to NOT shill for obomney.

"That makes you stupid."

Yes... I understand how you elitists snobs view those of us that are grounded in reality. We're the 'stupid' ones that cling to our bibles and guns instead of qurans and the book of mormon.

Praise God I'm not as smart as you. Not being cranially constipated like you I don't possess a need to sport a glass belly to see where I am going.
