FreedomWorks, Tea Party Express At Odds Over Romney

The Tea Party Express and FreedomWorks are in the middle of a political scuffle after news broke that FreedomWorks was planning on protesting GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s appearance at a Tea Party Express rally in Concord, N.H. 

FreedomWorks, a conservative group with close ties to the Tea Party movement, is now experiencing a backlash from its conservative ally. The Tea Party Express said in a statement released Wednesday that “it’s just silly to protest a tea party where Governor Romney is speaking.”

“Narrow mindedness is not the way to strengthen the tea party movement,” the statement reads. “We view this move by FreedomWorks at best as a misguided press stunt, and are disappointed at the disingenuous approach taken after we have make every effort to be inclusive and accommodating on our bus tour.”
