Tea Party Warms To Romney
Talking Points Memo ^ | 4/18/12 | Kyle Leighton

Posted on 04/18/2012 5:02:41 AM PDT by Haiku Guy

One chunk of the Republican electorate has proved an incredibly fickle voting bloc, denying party unity while the nominating process dragged on. It’s the same group of conservative voters that went from candidate to candidate, looking for an alternative to former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.

Now, out of options, it seems that those who identify themselves as tea party supporters are finally coming home to the presumptive nominee.

I know it’s Talking Points Memo, but even a blind squirrel finds and acorn, now and then.

It's not that I've "warmed" to Romney but that I've "cooled" to Osama Obama...down to about absolute zero.

Can’t speak for the rest of the Tea Party but I’m not warming to that socialist RINO at all. I will not be voting for him unless he comes out and announces he’s going to do away with some Unconstitutional firearms laws and promises to see justice done over the Fast and Furious Treason.

If he comes out and declares publicly that he’ll work hard to repeal the NFA, Hughes Amendment and the Sporting Purpose clause... I’ll vote for him. If he doesn’t, well, he’s not getting my vote.

Hey, if it's anybody but Mitt Romney, I'll be partying in the streets!

But it's not going to be anybody but Mitt Romney. It's going to be Mitt Romney.

So, what's the big deal? Rombotomites think he can win without our help.

They've calculated that he will attract more Independents than he will lose Tea Partiers.

Of course, that won't stop them from blaming us when he loses.

Not this TEA Party member. There will NEVER be a vote coming from me, my household - and if I can help it, anyone from our community for Romney if he is on the ballot in November.

The Ruling Class has overplayed it’s hand as far as I am concerned.

This election the Ruling Class insists we drink from the cup they thrust into our faces. A cup of their own choosing. They spit in, defiled and knocked from our hands all the other cups we were interested in. So they thrust this platter into our faces with two cups they have said from the beginning of this campaign we must drink from.

Both cups are poison. One we know will kill us quick, the other cup is filled with a poison that will still kill us, but slower and more painfully.

While many folks are trying to convince me that taking the slower poison will buy us time from a quicker death, I refuse to acquiesce to their logic. I REFUSE to take from either cup. I will choose my own, not what they have presented.

I plan to fill it out precisely as you have represented it in post #8.

I vote for people I support, and only for people I support.

To those that don't know, the "Cool Story Bro" is an internet meme that is meant to mock the original report or story.

When shown the November reality, even Tea Party folk know what the best choice is......
