Tea Party Express Endorses Mike Coffman (Shhh, Don't Tell Anyone)

2 Comments
by: Colorado Pols

TeaParty-MikeCoffman

Tea Party Express, which bills itself as the largest Tea Party political action committee in the country, announced yesterday — yes, yesterday — that it is endorsing Republican Congressman Mike Coffman in CD-6. Check out the endorsement press release, however, and note how the language is so plain that it could apply to just about any interest group:

Tea Party Express’ Executive Director Taylor Budowich said, “Representative Mike Coffman is a solutions-driven leader. We need a problem solver like Mike to continue to get to the bottom of serious issues. We are confident he will keep the ball rolling to provide real answers for Americans.

It almost sounds like, We endorse Mike Coffman because we are endorsing Mike Coffman. We'd say that getting this endorsement is akin to the old "kissing your sister" line, but that wouldn't be fair to your sister.

Sounds to me more like they're saying, We endorse Mike Coffman because we know Mike Coffman believes the same ridiculous nonsense we do.

. . . "serious issues" — now that's the hands down, funniest thing on this site all day!?!

We take this short break for a message from their leader…. (or as AChole would say, Der Leader)

Word on the political street is we need a respected advocate for Conservatism to reach low-info voters. While I do believe a new voice will emerge, I wonder who could be better than Sarah Palin? Will we betray our new Conservative hero?

Reps Coffman and Gardner – putting smiles on Tea Party faces everywhere they go:
