Thank you, Lord, for sending Starla Brown to my Facebook page with this link.

Florida Poll: Tea Party Supporters Like Rick Santorum Best

The 2,567 likely primary voters questioned by the Dixie Strategies/First Coast News Public Opinion Survey supported Gingrich with 35.46 percent while Romney had 35.08 percent.

The poll also reported that 76 percent of its respondents had a “very positive” or “somewhat positive” view of the tea party. 

Among voters who identify with the tea party movement, 31.3 percent had a “very positive” view of Romney and 56.9 percent had a “very positive” view of Gingrich.

But Rick Santorum racked up the biggest number, with 59.9 percent giving him a “very positive” rating.

Maybe this is why Judson Phillips of Tea Party Nation felt compelled to send out an email ordering his members to fall in line.

People do desperate things sometimes.
