So it makes sense they would still be against it whereas there is a lower limit for non-teabag Republicans (obviously, otherwise they would not have pissed off the teabaggers by caving on the Gov't shutdown over Obamacare, among other things). It's disingenuous to suggest that the OP's logic is faulty just because the teabaggers aren't on board with Obama on the TPP like the most of the rest of the Repugs are. But you knew that.
