Mitt Romney WILL win Iowa! (A Message for the Tea Party)



You have lost, all of you Tea Party "Patriots". This is another victory for the Left.
Prepare to be tread on.

Politics aside, I hope you all had a great, secular, happy holiday vacation and hopefully this new year will be better than the last one.
2012: last year of the Tea Party?

Thank you all for watching. Liberals, sow the seeds of discord to make sure a Republican house divided against itself cannot stand.

1. But honestly don't we want Paul?

Reason is a Paul run in the primaries would throw the reptlians into a big tizzy. Plus Paul is proably a bit of an easier target in the general.

This video is (in my opinion) a clever attempt to goad the Tea Baggers into pushing one of their own (especially an unelectable ignoramus like Ron Paul) over the top in Iowa, (or at least a very strong finish), resulting eventually in some real momentum for the Tea Party candidate for president.
I do not believe Mitt Romney will win the nomination, but as the most electable Republican he has a good (and dangerous) chance of doing so. We cannot allow this to happen. I for my part am doing what little I can.
If you check out my video's comments and dislikes on Youtube, I think you might agree with me that my strategy appears to be working. Just keep this strategy/idea quiet... and this is what I REALLY mean by "sowing the seeds of discord".

First off, my parents don't have a "liqour cabinet", as they don't drink the stuff. Second, I don't use drugs or alcohol (which is actually an extremely serious concern where I live for teenagers, actually).
Third: really? Totally ignore my video and attack me based on your own ignorance towards me? Your comment is eerily similar to what I get from conservatives every single day.
It makes me sad to see a liberal DUer acting like a conservative Freeper.

If I had known it was you in the video I would not have made any wisecracks. I feel embarrassed now for making a joke at your expense.

I realize that you were just being lively and dramatic, which can keep viewers from getting bored.

Keep up the good work. I really do mean that. Thank you for posting your video.

(by the way, I thought for sure I posted a reply just 2 minutes ago, but the reply wasn't there anymore when I came back, so I wrote it again.)

I accept your apology. I could understand how you might think that, and you're right about the (melo)drama in my videos.
(Your wisecracks were actually relatively tame compared to the far-right attacks on my video and me personally, just disturbed me that liberals would engage in that sort of thing to one of their own. I often witness conservatives eat each other on my Youtube videos and elsewhere).

You're welcome... just trying to do my small part to help divide the Right.
Whatever happens in Iowa tonight, the conservatives WILL freak out.

Ok, thank you for taking the time to apologize, have a great day!
