PING to you, dearest JPB!

Newtered – The List Grows

newter: verb; The act of figuratively destroying, decimating or completely blowing out of the water; esp. pertaining to journalists exhibiting blatant left-wing bias via the implementation of “gotcha questions”; named for the tactical oratorical skills of Newt Gingrich.

Wow, glad to see that Perry will still be carrying the 10th amendment banner. He’ll just be doing it as a state governor, not as federal President.

“That’s what impresses me about Newt....very quick on his feet.”

That will be invaluable when dealing with the dirty tactics and gotcha-attempts by the Obama machine (MSM included in that). In fact, it’s a requirement.


That will also be invaluable when dealing with our friends and enemies around the world. That and in-depth knowledge of military strategy.

“The only way we are going to get the DC crowd back to being productive the the US is to have DC experience. Mr. Speaker has that. I have had the pleasure of many personal experiences with Newt from being a retired reporter. OK, he's a little flakey sometimes. Who isn't. Great heart and a wonderful person. Give me his experience any time.”

Glad to hear from someone who does know him personally. My analysis was that we need someone who really understands how Washington works, and has a record of reform, and knowledge and dedication to constitutional principles.

He has the best resume in spite of his personal mistakes.

I have to give lots of points to Mitt for simply saying “let’s get to the issues”

I suspicion he wanted to move on because he saw how the people responded for Newt! Not what he and his handlers were hoping for, I expect. ahahaha

Romney’s stuttering is flat out killing me right now. Geez spit it out already.

I could not agree MORE!!! Stutter on every single sentence, every other word. It's soooooo annoying!

And his pronunciation of "LeGislature" as "LeDislature."

And tonight, he pronounced "ReGister" as "ReDister."

Said it before and I'll say it again.....

It's hard not to stutter when you've got a RINO stuck in your throat!

"“Character and morality matters. If a democrat had done what Newt did (actually we have several to choose from), would those on here supporting Newt, support the democrat cheater? I doubt it.

What is the public perception of the Newt/affair story going to be in the next few days?

1. He’s a serial cheater, who wanted a open marriage, and had a 6 year affair in his wifes bed.

2. Newts debate response was so good, we are going to ignore the whole thing?

Same thing happened with Palin. After the I can see Russia from my house story broke, she was painted as an idiot. We all knew what she was really trying to say. And we know she is far from stupid. But what did the public meme become around Sarah?

I hate the MSM and what ABC is doing 35 hours before the debate. But if you think this won’t negatively impact Newt, you have some strong rose colored glasses on. I’d love to see Newt become president. But he has was too much personal and policy baggage. He will be destroyed by Obama and the media in the fall. Mitt may get destroyed also. And if so, we are stuck with Obama 4 more years. And the country as we know it , is at risk.”

" I don't support Newt because of his cheating. I support Newt because of his proposals for change, and his past record of achievement for conservative policies when in Congress.

Any nominee is going to have the media go after him tooth and nail. Which candidate has so far been able to put the media on the defensive?

Some evangelical women may have a problem with his cheating that renders his real qualifications moot to them, but maybe some of those women who are democrats turned independents will not be so picky.

Good point! Newt was too conservative for them. Santorum painted a different pix.

I was being charitable toward Santorum.......my point was that for him to give NewT NO credit for winning the House and subsequent achievements was low-class.
