Brat,

If the river has suddenly hit him, and he's TAG like you said, then he had A2 and a good draw. He was *never* passing on the flop. So all you have done, assuming you are now being quartered, is save money. But that wasn't the reason I advocated calling in the first place. The reason to call was to try and manufacture an allin coup against the two remaining players. Another way of looking at the weakness of raising on the flop is that if the button is weak, he will almost certainly now pass, having seen the two tighties ahead of him going to war. It also gives the tight player a place to pass. You might decieve him into sticking with an A3 or a completley naked A2. He would definately pass the former and *could* pass the latter to a raise from a player with your image.
