Tea party leader calls for Cain to drop out
The Daily Caller ^ | 10/10/2011 | CJ Ciaramella

Posted on 11/10/2011 6:20:11 AM PST by martosko

The leader of a tea party group is calling for scandal-embroiled GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain to drop out of the race.

Judson Phillips, the founding leader of Tea Party Nation, said Cain’s flailing response to sexual harassment allegations brought forward by several women was simply unacceptable.

“Herman Cain has got to go,” Judson said in an email to Tea Party Nation members. “I do not believe Cain’s accusers. There are too many questions about them. The allegations are not why Cain should leave. The campaign’s response is why he should now withdraw.”

“Judson Phillips, the founding leader of Tea Party Nation,”

Judson incorporated the “Tea Party Nation Corporation”, and does not represent the “TEA Party” (Taxed Enough Already), which has no leader or organization.

Judson is a for-profit liberal using the “TEA Party” name in his corporation to commit fraud and swindle people thinking he is the TEA Party out of donation money.

Judson is a fraud and a scam artists and a criminal for doing so.

Oh no, Judson Phillips, it is you who has got to go!!!!

Go down on your knees and repent, first and pray that your eyes be opened to salvation and the Truth.

THERE SIMPLY IS NO “LEADER” OF THE TEA PARTY, PERIOD! I get hundreds of emails from these money-grubbing opportunists.

The “Tea Party” is a state of mind and a way of life; it is controlled by no one person.

Ask her to name the “3 or 4” accusors and detail their “allegations”.

We have 1) Bialek with specific (but weak) claims, and 2) Krushaar(sp) with non-specific “claims”. Both have histories, to put it mildly. Any others are completely unsubstantied rumors with unnamed women and no allegations, and Cain has maintained he only knew/knows of the 1 issue at the NRA with Krushaar(sp).

The Egypt thing, IF even true, is/was definitely NOT any sort of harassment claim.

As far as I can see, there was only 1 claim, and now there are 2 with the Bialek allegations.

What an idiot! If he doesn’t believe the allegations then the lynching still has the same effect.

“”The girl I am dating said....”
Last nite my wife says “if there are 3 or 4 accusers maybe there’s something going on”

Says I “4 X 0 = 0”

They haven’t a shread of evidence, let alone integrity, between the lot of them.

You want to see a sex scandal; look at Penn State. You want to see a media hit job; look at Herman Cain. “

Worth repeating, over and over - around the water cooler, to friends and family.

Thanks, Pietro.

Judson phillips is a buffoon who had his own scandal when Palin was brought to town. Trust me, he is a Newt guy and he is a dolt.

and, he’s a tea party “leader”?

These people are more often than not 'self-appointed self-important' lunatic fringe types from what I have seen before. You can likely rest assured not too many in his area subscribes to this guys notions or opinions. But none the less the media types just eat this stuff up. Helps to sow the appearance of division among the ranks of the TP base.

IF ‘someone needs to go”—perhaps it should be Judson.

I’m familiar with Tea Party Express and Tea Party Patriots, being a member of both; but, I don’t know this Tea Party Nation, is it a for real branch of the Tea Party movement? Guess I’ll google it.

I haven’t heard Sarah say she wasn’t available for the VP job, so there may be hope she’s on the ticket.

The Tea Party Nation sponsored a National Tea Party Convention back in 2010 and Sarah Palin was the keynote speaker.

That kind of put Judson out there as a "major" player within the Tea Party Movement.

He is the "leader" of his tea party group, but no one is a national leader of the TPM.

Of course, the MSM tries to paint many people as the leader even though the real leaders of the TPM are the millions of tea partiers across the nation.

Phillips is going beyond his intellectual capabilities with his jumping on the RINO/Leftist bandwagon with the premise that the charges are so horrific that Cain should step down.

That's a dem tactic, who believe it doesn't' matter if charges are true or not, it's the severity of the charges that counts. Juvenile tactic which sometimes works.

I traveled with the Tea Party Express on their last Nationwide Tour that had about 30 teaparties across this land culminating in the Rep Prez Debate in conjunction with CNN in Tampa, FL about two months ago.

Phillips came along for part of the tour.

He didn't appear to me to have what it takes to be a major player in the TPM, as proved by this gaff of his.

I have pinged the posters on this thread that I think would be interesting in this post.

I understand Palin’s reasoning for not running, but I wish she's reconsider.

Our current field of candidates is underwhelming.
