Hi Onyx,
If I’m not mistaken, the TPX is not taking a stand and supporting Newt. There is no mention of it in their info about the rally.
I just wrote and ripped ‘em. What is the purpose of rallying to possibly support ...NOONE?
To remain “neutral” to be “fair to everyone” is self defeating at this juncture.
Have a neutral rally later but for now, Newt needs their help.
And if they respond that they don’t endorse, well change the rules.
Okay, just saw that Newt is going to appear at a TP rally today. Feel better!
"Our group overwhelmingly supports Santorum, but it's not right to endorse," she said.
Ugh, sounds like this woman thought the Tea Party was a place to go on Sunday to munch krumpets and sip tea.
Politics is a war and being neutral makes you no better than Switzerland. This woman should run for Congress, where she would enjoy scratching backs and getting along with the ol' boys club by abandoning her principles and not standing up for anything.
The Tea Party Express had said that they would endorse before South Carolina, which prompted a lot of people to contact them, asking for an endorsement for Newt. Then, they announced they would not be endorsing anyone before South Carolina. I think the same is true in Florida, no endorsement. Florida is currently an Armaggedon. Anyone staying on the sidelines here will be culpable if Willard turns a Florida win into a sure path for the nomination, including and especially Santorum and his supporters...
PLEASE MAKE CALLS FOR NEWT TODAY FROM HIS NATIONAL FLORIDA PHONE BANKS:
