And yeah.

What's the latest for the Tea Party -- -- the currency -- Romney campaign include the Tea Party at the convention next month and Tampa and what if they don't.

What will that mean don't forget the grassroots who impacting power punch in the 2010 midterm elections president Tim Scott joins me concern.

Commuting to be with the -- Nice steady so do you expect the tea party of which says soon you are a member at least you were brought answered on that wave of Tea Party activism in -- at.

Do you expected the Tea Party will have in role in the convention next month.

That's certainly a big event there's no question of the Tea Party will be a part of the overall apparatus the key.

Those -- -- recognized the importance of this election is so incredible.

But every facet of the Republican Party will be a part of a team.

And the fact of the matter is you if you believe in free markets that would -- the platform that Romney will be speaking to all of us in stressed that the Tea Party and independents.

I suppose so as much isn't teen party and and others in the Republican Party support free markets and -- that is sort of the front and center I was governor Romney is he goes into the election November.

If the Tea Party which is serve a new grassroots movement that has said -- huge -- influence uncertain elections.

Is disk is that doesn't get a primetime spot at the campaign for speaking.

I assumed that that might sting a bit and what it not.

-- they golf family reunions are very interest in the watches sometimes entertaining.

But there's no doubt about it from my perspective that when you look at what will happen -- In Tampa.

You'll see the unification of the Republican Party and all those folks who have two things a common.

We support Mitt Romney and we are ready for no more years for President Obama.

-- see as the leaders of the Tea Party movement.

Well there's no question that you you look around the country and I think that the leaders of the Tea Party movement without question.

-- every day grassroots organizers.

Who are working night and day to make sure that Mitt Romney becomes the next president of the United States to try to figure out.

Which political leader is -- political leader of the Tea Party.

I think it's probably a challenging venture because.

The Tea Party had so many tentacles that that -- one person or two individuals but I believe the best leaders of the Tea Party from a national perspective would do.

The Tea Party in the movement -- an injustice.

What do you ever on the conscious in the saudis see sent sent to -- amazing Governor Sarah Palin that's.

Represent us -- Michelle Bachmann has served Leo at least.

Popular within the Tea Party movement I find it hard to believe that if the Tea Party movement doesn't get respect.

And that means video -- some good strong position.

And some and by the Romney campaign at the convention.

I find that hard to believe they won't feel burned are -- and that want to have some impact on the level enthusiasm going into the election.

Well I honestly believe that we have two very positive things going our direction from of the Tea Party perspective.

-- from the Republican Party we have looking at Mitt Romney he is.

Bringing together coalescing a fantastic team I believe was -- believe in the future of America.

I think they're looking for the speakers.

During -- convention.

It is not my job and certainly probably the American people want a new direction for this nation -- the Tea Party looks forward.

To finding it a a lot of good reasons to support Mitt Romney.

And that means the end the Obama years.

I imagine if they've put a silly game that we plan -- we can't help ourselves which is who's going to be the vice president shown nominee is we are -- gas and would -- rumors and and get all of this bits of information think we know -- -- curious.

Who would you like to see and the ticket do you have president.

Favorite.

Well that's certainly I've ever have a favorite but I would tell you what I think is the most likely outcome they the most likely outcome -- senator Foreman looks like the best candidate that will end up on the ticket Marco Rubio is fantastic what I question brings a lot of energy to take it.

Senator -- -- -- somebody who's already been vetted has great history in the party and to that a lot of value in way to take it.

I -- look -- just idiot a favorite who is that.

Well visit our assess servant Paul Ryan -- in that everyone really appreciates the job he's done in the house that -- he would represent us well and certainly doesn't do bad job in Wisconsin he brings a lot of momentum and energy to the ticket -- that he would be another one of my favorites as well.

-- and -- -- it went up the great -- it was -- my home state anyway Catherine thank you sir.
