If Mitt Romney is the choice then it’s the same ol’ RINO party, not republican party. Heaven help us!

Haven’t republicans learned anything at all from the Tea Party or are they really that stupid?

1. Mitt can't survive the teaparty primary. Charlie Crist had a better chance than Mitt will
the (R)s will nominate a wing nut

3. It will take some time for repubs to learn
that growth of teabgrs will only break things up, but some 'smart' ones may recognize it now.

At least Ron Paul recognizes foolishness, AND says it.

14. Seriously...what happens when these tea partiers...
Edited on Sat Apr-10-10 10:14 PM by CoffeeCat
...are faced with the reality that they are not as
powerful and influential--even in their own party--as
they believe?

Right now, the only thing holding some of them back
is their belief that they're an important part of
some kind of revolution. Glenn Beck feeds into
their grandiose delusions.

How many times have we heard a tea partier say, "Just
you wait until them thar elections!"

Ok....so what happens after the elections and everything
is the same?

I predict chaos.

5. Dear christ! these people are just plain....
Edited on Sat Apr-10-10 07:54 PM by hyphenate
well, stupid. Idiots, morons, jerks, retards and brain challenged!

This one for example:

"Sarah's speech yesterday should put an end to that. She's solidly in the Republican camp and intends to work to put the Republican party on a path so that Republicans, Reagan Democrats and independents (who make up the tea party) can support a Republican candidate. Whether it's her or someone like Mike Pence or Paul Ryan or even Haley Barbour, is irrelevant as long as that energy is directed toward a figure who can energize the electorate by promising to do what is possible to roll back big government. And it won't be Mitt or Huckabee or even Newt who will do it."


I really wonder how any of them assumes that Palin is good for the country. She came from nowhere, and she needs to return to nowhere.



PS: What the fuck is a Reagan Democrat? That boggles the mind!

12. Yep, taking Alaska to a debt to asset ratio of 74:1 is rolling back big government alright.

8. They are turning into the Whigs or Know Nothings very rapidly, rudderless, of no value to anyone.
Mayor Lindsay where are you?

13. Hopefully they'll go the way of the Whigs soon.
Then the Tea Party can try to become an actual political party to replace them and get trounced for a while until it dies too.

“Haven’t republicans learned anything at all from the Tea Party or are they really that stupid?”

I have always said that a third party would be the kiss of death for America, and a wet dream for Obambie and the Marxist.
After reading this post, however, I am starting to have second thoughts.
This is just sickening... America is DEAD.

11. Tea party = myopia on steroids...
Take away the ideology of the tea party--and what you have is the
same old group of extremist right wingers that has been in the party
for decades. The tea parties are the right wing of the right wing
and that will never be a majority in the Republican party. It
will always be just a sliver of our political landscape.

But don't tell them that! They're so busy listening to Rush
and Glenn, and the same chorus of voices on Fox News that they
think their movement is bigger than it is.

The truth is--the right wing of the right wing will always have
some influence on their own party--but they aren't the entire
party. And for sure--most Independents and 99 percent of Democrats
think they're out of their ever lovin minds!

Again! Don't tell them that! They're in the middle of a revolution! :eyes:

17. They actually believe that Rush, Palin, Paul, Hannity etc
are working folks like them and being taken advantaged of by government. It's not loss of FREEDOM they are worried about. It's loss of PRIVILEGE they fear.

18. Wow, Paul is right up there with Mittens
Isn't that kind of a study in opposites, at least from a conservative POV?

Seems like it may portend a major schism amongst the Rethugs. It could shape up to be a very entertaining primary.
