Ask Santorum about that. I believe Newt could unload on Santorum and for a reason has elected not to. He has defended Rick on many occasions. Rick has failed to do the same.
In fact, RS played cold enough against Newt during the height of the weird ex-wives scandal.
They need to work it out as the final two TRUE CONSERVATIVES in the race.
But maybe they have since I haven’t heard Newt refer to Rick as his “junior partner” recently.
You can’t use logic on someone who thinks Mike Huckabee is a true conservative.
You can’t use logic and historical fact and reality and reach a guy who still thinks Huckaboo is a great conservative.
I mean it’s one thing to have thought that for a while in 07-08 - but to still be under such a delusion requires a certain lack of firing synapses.
Thus, without those needed electrical pulses in the brain working, I don’t think your very well stated post will reach the intended target.
