Romney for President? What’s a Tea Party Voter to Do in 2012?
Activism Tuesday, January 10th, 2012
By Kevin McCullough, FOX Nation
Having spent the last several days in the Granite State I am even more puzzled now than I was late last week when I began pondering this new reality: “The Tea Party is dead.”
I don’t know what happened between November of 2010 and January of 2012. Does anyone?
How else do you explain it?
Rewind to November of 2010, race after race, congressional seat after congressional seat, governorship after governorship.
Only a little more than eighteen months after President Obama had packed the mall in Washington for his historic inaugural, The Tea Party held it’s historic event in which nearly the same size audience–according to maps supplied by the USA Today–had attended. That event catapulted a state by state tsunami-like momentum where grassroots, low tax, small government, pro-founding principles, pro-life, pro-national security, and pro-God forces aligned and an election victory of historic equivalence shook America in 2010.
The driving force of that agitation then as it is still today was the effect of a poor economy, government intervention, federal overreach, bureaucratic mandates, and punitive taxes on the nation’s beleaguered small business community. Entitlements, bail-outs, and criminally reckless spending ensued.
The Tea Party believed that the buffoons authoring the mess should be dealt a blow. And in 2010 they leveled power in the Congress.

The TEA Party is not dead. What you are describing happens when the “leadership” abandons the core beliefs only to look around and find themselves standing all alone. The TEA Party is middle class, Reagan Conservatives and we will follow so long as you lead in that direction. Don’t take us for granted and “Don’t Tread On Me.”
The Tea Party will not vote for a Status Quo Corrupt Politicians like Romney or Gingrich etc….
Ron Paul is the only on who will up hold the US Constitution and believes
in Small Government !
Pauliacs, scrutinize your man! Would a true constitutionalist team with Barney Frank and Soros to gut our military? Check the Frontpagemag.com article.
tea party is not dead. nothing is perfect. as long as we dont have a fraud ,marxsist in the white house is a big step to save our country. Me and many
of my TEA PARTY ACTIVIST DO NOT DONATE A PENNY TO ANYBODY
EXCEPT TEA PARTY AND THE CONSERVATIVE ORGANIZATION THAT
ARE FIGHTING FOR US. BE PATIENT, OUR COUNTRY HAS BEEN TAKEN IN SOCIALIST DIRECTION FOR MANY YEARS AND WE NOTICED
AND WOKE UP WITH IMMACULATION OF BHO. WE HAVE TO TAKE FEW BABY STEPS, TO GET WHERE WE WANT TO BE . OUR NEXT
GOAL SHOULD BE TO TAKE THE SENATE. SO PLEASE STAY INTUNE.
THIS COUNTRY IS NOT GOING TO CHANGE WITHOUT TEA PARTY
PARTIOTS.
After the NH caucus, how can anyone doubt the TP needs to unite behind Ron Paul?
I agree that the Tea Party is not dead by any stretch of the imagination. The only conservative candidate we have been given is Ron Paul and I am behind him 100%. I think he can be elected our next President!!
Listening to John Gibson, I heard Jack Welsh ( former CEO of GE) state the following :
“The Nation is fortunate to have Mitt Romney as a Delegate for President.”
The reason why is that Mitt is the only experienced business man who understands how an Economy is organized, created and maintained at the National Level. The accusations by Newt, and Perry are not true. Busnesses had to be shut down because they were no longer profitable. So, how can you pay employees if the business is not makeing a profit !!!
He’s the only person who could actually loose to Obama. Another meanlingless big government empty suit that will say anything and only cares about himself.
