So it's somewhat surprising to see the Tea Party completely overlooked by the Republicans when they came to select a candidate, and it is surprising too (although refreshing also) to see them make such a complete and total mess of their selection of candidate and his running mate.

Once again, God Help America!

Don't be surprised if Fox "News" supports Romney/Ryan. Looks like Murdoch is happy with Mittens's choice.
