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.”

There is no tea party “leader”.
The person posing as such, should resign.
"The Tea Party" speaks for itself on election day.
Apparently Judson forgot that TEA party people do their own thinking.

Oh yea, this is the guy who wants to use the tea party as his own personal cash cow
Just another sleazy political opportunist.
I find it interesting that everyone is soooo happy that Cain is running against the media. It’s been done before. GHW Bush even had a bumper sticker that read “It’s the media stupid”, and we got Bubba Clinton.
The media is NOT the issue. The economy IS the issue.
Let’s go all Occupy Atlanta on Judson:
Speaker: “We are running a grassroots campaign...”
Electorate: “We are running a grassroots campaign...”
Speaker: “...where no single *unelected* weasel...”
Electorate: “...where no single *unelected* weasel...”
Speaker: “...like Judson Phillips...”
Electorate: “...like Judson Phillips...”
Speaker: “...is more important than the electorate...”
Electorate: “...is more important than the electorate...”
Speaker: “...and gets to choose our candidates for us.”
Electorate: “...suck it, Judson.”
Ia this one of those ‘Fake Tea Parties’ the left put together?
Looks like we are headed to a Cain Gingrich ticket, which is fine by me.
In favor of WHOM, Judson???
How about you just worry about building TP numbers and messages and let Herman and his backers worry about his campaign?
Judson, go ^@$@$^#$@ yourself pal.
In other words, become a useful idiot.
“The leader of a tea party group”
I didn’t know we had a leader...or a group! I am the TEA party. I speak for myself.
Judson has his own skeletons, and nasty behavior:
Judson Phillips is a controversial attorney who organized (and whose family profits from) the for-profit corporation Tea Party Nation, which organized the first national Tea Party convention in February 2010. In the decade prior to this money-making enterprise, Phillips had filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 7 of the federal code and had no less than three liens against him (Phillips claims the liens are now paid off).
1. Blames Liberals for Giffords Shooting
2. Calls Wisconsin Citizens Protesting Walker Nazis
3. Thinks Only Property Owners Should Be Able to Vote
4. Urged Religious Discrimination in Voting

I do on occasion. Honestly lately it is to hear his latest rant about Cain.
I confess that the first time my ears perked up about him was when he started talking about the possiblility that Bigfoot may be real.
a local “TEA Party” in our area is suppoting Ron Paul...
so the label “TEA Party” doesnt mean much any more...
The Tea Party has a leader?????
Blow it out your left ear, buddy. You are proving to be a fool.
Tea Party has no self described leaders.
