Ha! Ha! u funny. The young conservatives voted for the “old man” Reagan in droves.
Uh, was that post absolutely necessary? Yuck! There was a time and place in my lifetime when that word you used would have got you slapped in the face.
“This is the main problem with Newt: Rasmussen: Obama 45%, Gingrich 40% “
The main problem with Reagan in late 1979 was this..............
Carter 47 Reagan 39”
Then came the Iranian Hostage crisis. Can you predict we get a gift like that to turn that Rasmussen poll numbers around? Of course not.
But that aside, Newt Gingrich is no Ronald Reagan.
Oh, God.
Neither I or our home business will survive another 4 years of ‘hope and change’.
Its going to be far worse than 45-40 by the time october rolls around but stay the hell out of the way of the cheerleading squad.
I don’t want him. I’d happily vote for Bachmann or Santorum.
I’m not surprised at so-called conservatives on Free Republic who have trashed them.
We’ll wind up with an unelectable RINO and Obama will win a second term.
Conservatives swagger about supporting a conservative but won’t support a candidate with a proven conservative record.
We’ll either get Gingrich or Romney. Uggghhhh!
“The main problem with Reagan in late 1979 was this”
LOL are you comparing Newt with Reagan?
Newt has been a national figure for decades and everyone already has an opinion of him. He has very limited growth potential.

I share your disdain of Luntz
I'm the sad sack?
I'm optimistic, not resigned.
I've made things happen in my state!!
Forget about Reagan.....it's over.
You sound like so many old Democrats who were waiting for the next FDR.
You go to battle with the army you got, not with what you don't got!
I'm the sad sack?
Google my name.
I'm the one who moved beyond Reagan.
And I'm the one who will help to change Newt's perspective!!
Just another fag boy that wants to go to the parties and his invitation is his "conservative credentials" that are always willing to dump on whatever the conservative position happens to be, and therefore can be quoted as a "differing conservative opinion".
PIMP! WHORE! C.........
Ladies and gentlemen, meet the “republican establishment” in all their irrelevance.
“We were fooled by Tom DeLay.”
Tom Delay is the one that does not fit in with the other three.

Touche'
Here is Sonny and Sacksville R&B Give me back my wig
Go! Son Dog Go!
Sadly, I think that The Donald’s hair is his own - grown from the back of his head and then swooped and swirled on his bald pate and eventually dyed orange.
As an afficionado of bad wigs and toupees, I’d like to nominate Timothy Geithner as worst wig of the week.
Noot is out of LEFT field.
He has done so much serious damage to us that he cannot be considered.
But seriously, if you want to hypothesize a head to head comparison of Newt and Obama, isn’t the meaningful perception the one on election day? Which comes after some sequence of debates. Who would be better at going through Obama like a white hot buzz saw in debates (of any format) than Newt? In fact that is probably the strongest argument for nominating Newt - is his ability to show a stunning, stark contrast with Obama that will transform public perception, and thus that rank order.
haha, this is hilarious. A candidate who’s not garnering support from some fellow former Congressmen, allegedly conservative pundits like Will, Brooks and Noonan, and his lesbian half-sister can’t be all bad!
The meme of the day vs. Newt seems to be ‘egomaniac.’ As if ANYONE in politics isn’t an egomaniac!
