Is any other candidate going to challenge Obama to 7 debates? Is any other candidate going to show up where Obama was 4 hours later to respond to what Obama just said? Newt is fearless because he knows he’s right going against Obama. The Republican debates are a little more difficult for him, because there are not big differences and he doesn’t want to attack. But could you imagine Newt unleashed when he starts talking about the incompetence coming out of the White House. He wants to keep it positive now, but you have to believe the gloves will be coming off in the general election and it’s a message Americans need to hear. What good is winning the next election, if after 4 years Americans still believe Socialism is better? There is a threat to the mindset of this country right now because of Obama. Newt will change that mindset and get us back to thinking like Americans again. He was under constant attack tonight and he handled it well. He can take a punch and he can counter punch.
I loved it when Newt called Obama an Alinsky radical. Yeah, I think he'll really take the gloves off and lay into Obama's socialist/communist background, training, mentors, etc. America will have to choose: Socialism vs American Exceptionalism. It's your call American voter. . .
Another thing, the country is facing more peril than it has decades, so it is not the time for on the job training. None of the contenders have such a deep and broad understanding of the government, constitution, foreign policy, conservative principles, and impact of policy on the economy not to mention history as Newt.
Perry had a better night, and I am watching him too. Hope he continues to improve. Right now, I would vote for Newt, and I started out feeling that I would not support any long time political person.
Whoa! What’s with the Newt rant?
You can support your candidate, but keep it civil with me.
I haven’t said anything bad about Newt. (Except to tweak some disruptor on another thread earlier today and I’ll do that if I so choose.) Newt’s not my candidate, but I’ll vote for him if he gets the nomination.
But, a word to the wise: New posters should not come off with unproked aggression to a FReeper who’s been here for nearly 11 years.
