Tea Party to Back Any GOP Nominee— Including Romney [according to self-appointed tea party "leader"]

The Tea Party will support whoever wins the GOP presidential nomination - - even if that person is former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney. That's the affirmative word from Tea Party Express chair Amy Kremer.

I kinda like what another freeper said earlier this week.....if it’s Romney...won’t vote....why? Because if the country is going to go to HE**, then let it be under the DEMS, and faster. Never thought I’d agree with the statement....but, that’s where I am TODAY/right now.

[Jim Robinson]

Never fear. Mitt Romney’s going to save the planet from man-made global warming. As if RomneyvCare/ObamaCare is not bad enough, he now wants to drive the final stake into the heart of our economic freedom with the grand global warming hoax.

Amy Kremer is a RINO sellout!!

FUAK!!

[FlyingEagle]

Um, no.

[Nitehawk0325]

I wonder if Amy Kremer is being backed by Obama? Only an idiot would vote for the republican version of Obama. Romney and his Massachusetts health care needs to stay the hell out of the Oval Office.

[Mariner]

Don't worry folks, she's nobody and she speaks for none but herself.

That she would claim she speaks for "The Tea Party" shows her ignorance and hubris...and that of the silly author to believe her.

[DoughtyOne]

That would be my take on it too. I don’t like Mitt, and he won’t get the nomination with my vote. At the end of the day election eve November 2012, I’d be prepared to vote for him without looking back.

Then I’ll spend four years kicking his rump every few days as he infuriates me constantly.

Man, another four years of that is next to the last thing this nation needs.

SS GOP...

[Reagan Man]

If Romney is the nominee, the GOP will lose.

No more liberals, no more moderates, no more rinos!

We need a red blooded conservative and we need him or her, NOW!

[Politicalmom]

I was guilted into voting for McCain, and only did it because of Palin. It will NOT happen again. I will never, ever, ever vote for Romney.

[Jim Robinson]

Not me. This time I’m out! Won’t support no damned abortionist big government RINO!!

[dadfly]

wrong. she doesn’t speak for me. though i’m registered at TPE (and other tea party sites) there is no way i’m going to vote for romney (or cristy for that matter). aside from the facts and logic. it would be morally wrong to vote for them given their stances.

these self important people, they just can’t help themselves, can they.

[Yaelle]

I don’t think the real tea party is a top down organization. And there is no infallible authority at the top of some structure.

[BuckeyeTexan]

No effing way, Amy. Think again.

[Doofer]

I could have sworn that one of the reasons that the Tea Party movement got so much traction was because of Obamacare.

But I guess Romenycare is just fine.

[ansel12]

Romney failed as Governor, left with 34% approval, and somehow is just naturally supposed to be the next President, the wording of this and Barbour, and others, proves that they know that republicans don’t like him or want him, yet they order it on us as though we are in the army, or in their employ.

They aren’t even waiting for the primary to tell us who the win is already assigned to, and they are willing to end the careers of candidates that get in his way.

[LibFreeOrDie]

She's head of the group that traveled around in the Tea Party Express buses. They're going to do Tour #5 soon. I say we egg 'em!

[Berlin_Freeper]

There is only so much I can take.

[Salgak]

And just who elected HER ?? I was under the impression that the Tea Party was a bottom-up movement, not a top-down.

And one thing for sure: NO RINOS!

[SunkenCiv]

It’s from the Tea Party Express. Thanks LibFreeOrDie.

[Jim Robinson]

If Amy Kremer is still with them after this, they can count me OUT!!
