I see why Romney is doing this...but I think he mistakes Koch for the Tea Partiers as a whole.
Tea Partiers do not have a single leader. No, it isn’t Ron Paul, or Sarah Palin, or Herman Cain.
Tea Partiers are about the IDEA of smaller, limited government.
*THIS* Tea Partier believes it especially applies to FEDERAL power, with the states free to experiment as they like. I know there are other Tea Partiers who disagree with me. :) And I respect their opinions.
Romney is nothing to me. And after the latest shennanigans by Perry, I would sooner vote for Obama.
Conservatives? BAHHH! They just showed their true liberal colors for all of America to see.
