She went on to say that the Tea Party will not support a third-party candidate as that would split the the vote and ensure a victory for Obama. That was the point of her comment you posted.
Sorry but anyone willing to accept the lesser of two EVILS is still supporting EVIL. Not something I have any interest in, or something I could support in any way. This is simply another proof to me that the Tea Party has no more philosophical heart or backbone than either of the major parties; therefore they have no more value in my mind than either of those parties.
My God. MarcATL and I just thanked the same post. The world's gone mad.
