Mitt Romney Endorsement Leads To Questions For Nikki Haley
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/02/mitt-romney-nikki-haley_n_1179842.html
Karen Martin, a self-employed editor of management training manuals who is an organizer for the Spartanburg Tea Party, said Haley spends too much time cheerleading for jobs and not enough time removing regulations.
But like some other Tea Partiers, Martin's biggest gripe is Haley's decision to support Romney.
Many in the Tea Party see Romney as a villain for instituting a healthcare overhaul in Massachusetts that required residents to have health insurance.
"It will not help Romney. It will absolutely hurt her," Martin said of Haley's endorsement. "She will have a Republican challenger who the Tea Party supports. There are Tea Party people who will work actively against her. The betrayal is so huge."
