Farewell To GOP's Squishy Gingrich Wing
Stephen Kruiser ^ | 10/27/09 | Stephen Kruiser

Enough of this garbage, already.

After two spectacularly dismal national elections, a large part of the old-guard in the GOP remains in "Einstein's Definition Of Insanity" mode and is determined to throw the party on the Whig pile.

This past week and a half has played out in a most interesting fashion both locally and nationally for me. After spending a weekend butting heads with the old-school money people at Western CPAC, I had a keener sense of just how clueless they are and how desperately their influence needs to be diminished, if not obliterated.(Hyperbole? You hang out with them and tell me.) The way the mess has since been playing out in NY-23 seems to be the political gods' way of saying, "You weren't overreacting last weekend, Stephen."

There has been much speculation as to just what Newt Gingrich was thinking when he endorsed Dede ACORN. I wasn't surprised at all. Once you've shared a couch with the Botox Hag there are any number of ideological illnesses that might infect you. Chronic illnesses.

Newt, the NRCC, the RNC and the NRSC are all confused anachronisms that find themselves involved in a game with ever-shifting rules. Unfortunately, most of the rules are being delivered online and they're all still sitting by their fax machines waiting for updates (I couldn't resist one last dig).

Gingrich will NEVER get the republican nomination for President. The only weight he now carries is his own bloated self.

Newt has a niche waiting for him in the Juan Wing.

Newt’s really a goner. Too bad. He has a lot of talent. Now the only avenue left for him is to become a regular MSNBC contributor. I see that as his future. He’ll replace Pat Buchanan as the token conservative who bashes Republicans for a living.

I think Newt can still find a niche in news commentary. I also think he does not subscribe to Scazzafava Republicanism. He is quite misguided in this case as is anyone who thinks ‘-R’ trumps ideology. Such is a prescription for the end of the United States.

I just read your WPAC post—hilarious.

It’s not just Gingrich—he’s the least of our worries. It’s the folks at the RNC and NRCC who have turned this race into an all-out, open war against conservatives.

The names (no more pushing leftists while hiding behind faceless organizations):
Pete Sessions
John Boehner
Eric Cantor
Kevin McCarthy

Good article. The longer they stay in power, the dumber and meaner they get towards normal people and liberty.
