I will write in Cain if I have to.
Amen. Will not vote for Romney if he gets the nomination. GOP can have fun losing if they want to push Romney.
To: ken21
Second that. He is no conservative, more of a moderate - a McLame look-alike. I will not support another one no matter who he picks as a VP - once was enough. He and Bush brought us Zero.

The tea party does not demand purity. As another poster mentioned, this is yet another straw-man from the left/media/RNC. The tea party is about smaller government, responsible government, and honest politicians who property government with the voters intent in mind. Romney is the polar opposite of the tea party and has purposely wanted nothing to do with it over the past two years. He an elitist, northeastern moderate to liberal big-government guy, and he in no way is appealing to conservatives. If he is the candidate, most tea-partiers will probably vote for him, but the motivation to donate, work, and fight is going to be much lower and will probably cost us the election.
In two election cycles, Romney simply hasn’t generated any passionate support. He couldn’t even run for reelection as governor for the same reason. He is not the guy to send into battle because the army behind him is minuscule..other than a few suited RNC beltway types.

Excellent post.
I don’t think Romney can get the R nomination without the support of crossover Dems in open primary states.

I saw it posted on another thread. If Romney gets the nominee they said they were staying home and not voting. If the country is going to be destroyed, they said they wanted it to be under a democrat president.

The MSM isn't really Main Stream at all....and frankly I'm not going to use that term anymore.
They are liars, and shade the truth every chance they get. In fact...I believe they are the most dangerous entity in the U.S.A.
There's history that proves this....

Should the tea party ever back the liberal Romney, the tea party would cease to have any meaning whatsoever. That's right.

Exactly my intention as well.
Look at it this way - if ObamaRomney is elected the open rebellions ramp up as the whole mess collapses.
Then we start over.

Who ran to the right of Ronald Reagan?
To: Caipirabob
That’s right, McCain was their favorite candidate among republicans in 2008. Nuff advice MSM, go help president Zero, he might need your help even more in 2012.

If Tea Partiers back Romney they negate and reverse everything they were striving for. They wìll be admitting that all their efforts were a wast of time and resources. Romney is the Democrat substitute and replacement for the crashing burning kenyan.
