You’re annoying. Repeating random facts is not debating..even if you scream them loudly and repeat them as often as you can. I was going to actually go through and piece by piece debunk you, but it dawned on me, you’re blindly foloowing Newt so it would be very much a waste of my time. I will simply say; research, do some.
Also, again, I like Gingrich. Dang, people are driving me to battle against him like I don’t like him. Again, I very much appreciate Gingrich and very much want a ticket with him and Santorum.
Jim Robinson just posted this on another thread. This is a Pro-Newt Gingrich site.

Awesome and brave post.
You are annoying to me. If you dont want anyone to answer posts in a forum..why do you go to forums? I am NOT blindly following Newt..have done my homework and studied the candidates intensely. I do not like a lot of things on Santorums record and you are damn right that I am a big time Newt supporter
We want Newt to WIN !!!! Jim Robinson wants Newt to win. We do NOR want Santorum to win.
If you actually had points you’d have something there, but all you’re doing is saying Santorum is fake, and needs to go home to his daughter...very extensive, deep knowledge set on display there. You then say he didn’t support TARP, when he had to defend his support of it...all the while saying you have done homework on the candidates. I am simply done with you on this issue.
“And I don’t care what the truth does to my FReeper status. I’ve heard worse about Newt from the owner of this site and everyone else around here until about 2 months ago.
So quit crying and attacking and realize Newt is getting every vote he earns and nothing more.”
You are so right. I did a search on Newt some days ago and he was roundly despised and told to get lost ayear ago by those who now are obsessed with him.
Newt hasn’t changed from a year ago. FreeRepublic has.
It does not mean that FReepers have to wage a scorched earth campaign against Santorum to help Newt.
Dede has cast hundreds of votes in the state legislature, compiling a record far worse than Specter. The icing on the cake is when Newt's gal dropped out and cast her vote for Democrat Bill Owens, ensuring the Dems a win in that district (Specter didn't switch parties until long after Santorum endorsed him) At least Specter voted with the GOP about 40% of time and had gone to bat for conservatives on some very important issues, like his support for Clarance Thomas. Dede Scozzafava had done absolutely NOTHING for conservatives.
>> Now how many and for whom did Specto/Santorum cast votes....? <<
Which of their votes would you like to discuss? As I noted above, Specter voted conservative about 40% of the time. Santorum was under heavy pressure from Bush & Karl Rove to endorse an incumbent senior Senator from his own state. Gingrich was under NO such pressure, he decided as a private citizen to get involved in a Congressional race in NY and endorse a far-left socialist (and then balked when conservatives complained about it)
>> Want to talk about humor? <<
Yes, I find it humorous that Santorum bashers here continually slam Santorum for "betraying" them by endorsing a RINO while simultaneously giving Newt Gingrich a pass for endorsing an even worse RINO. If your excuse is that it's worse because Specter held federal office, I will also point out that Gingrich endorsed and openly campaigned for embattled U.S. Senator Robert Bennet t (wrongly calling him a true-blue conservative.) over Mike Lee, and aggressively supported and campaigned for RINO Congressman Wayne Gilchrist (R-MD) over conservative Republican challenger Andy Harris, as well as RINO Joe Schwarz (R-MI) over conservative Republican challenger Tim Walberg. They were certainly as bad as Specter (probably worse) and held federal office and were able to cast plenty of bad votes in Congress.
Can you explain to me again why it's ONLY bad when Santorum endorses a RINO? It appears you have double standards. Hmmm.
Newts advice to similarly “turn on and tune in”, in addition to “dropping out” - was summarily ignored.
“Get OUT Rick, and save some of your dignity to stay in the conservative field as a spokesman and defender
Spend more time with Bella, we read she hasnt got much longer by the odds”
Despicable post. To say that about the man’s daughter is beneath contempt.
Why is this person not zotted?
Well OK then. Good luck in the general. If Newt is the nominee, I’ll vote for him. Do you believe deep down in your heart that there are enough solid conservatives across the country to put him over the top against obama?
So you view the field as won’t/can’t win to might?
LoL
Prescient
Now, that’s what I call common sense.
In fact, now that Gingrich has called twice for Santorum to drop out, it is certain that if and when Rick ends his campaign, he will endorse Romney.
Is this the way Newt rewards Santorum for publicly showing respect to him at one of the debates? Wow, Leroy Newton is SO out of touch.
So your preference is for somebody who couldn't even get on the ballot in his own state?
Yes, no doubt about it.
Independents voted for Newt in South Carolina showing large cross-over voters chose Newt.
Latinos are supporting Newt.
Newt has the Conservative base.
There is no doubt that millions of Americans know that Newt is capable to creating a healthy robust economy again. That’s what people want, people from all walks of life are tired of the Slick Spin Selling Scorch earth Ad Campaigns of sleazy politicians like Romney and Zero.
Newt solutions are simple to understand and Americans from all walks of life are tired of the Spin Selling types like Romney. They see right through him and are disgusted.
I read yesterday afternoon that Bella had improved, thank God. Why aren’t we discussing that? We are seeing more preying FReepers than praying FReepers.....
LOL at my screaming! Santorum has spoke about his daughter on the campaign trail which makes it public knowledge. IF it were my child..I would go home..that is his call and I don’t approve of it. IF he was soaring in the polls and garnishing more than 12% of the votes it would be different. The info I sent to you on Santorums votes are facts. You know if not for Newt he would not have won the senate at one time “In 1994, he ran for the U.S. Senate and was given virtually no chance of winning, but he prevailed by taking advantage of the conservative groundswell thanks in large part to then House Speaker Newt Gingrichs Contract With America.
On that we agree FRiend.
um...no.
“Romney might, might win against Obama.”
I do not believe that Romney can beat Obama. You are voicing the Republican Light message that I got from a GOP “insider” today.
It just might be the case that the answer to who can beat Hussein is none of the above. Sad but true.
“I can say is that Rush isn’t sure that Santorum voters would go to Newt.”
Rush doesn’t seem to know Jack Squat lately. He’s all over the place and grasping at straws IMO. He has no way of knowing how this would play out.
Nice teeth caps, Mittens.
Let’s see: Fake veneers, fake hair, fake candidate.
Newt got trounced in Florida. Time for him to get out.
Santorum’s daughter has a fatal birth defect
Her life will be short
As a parent who lost a child, I say he needs to get out of this ego trip as a campaign spoiler, go home, and spend her remaining days being her Dad
ZOT YOU
If you actually answered the question I asked, can you point me to the post in which you did that? I'm sure not seeing it. All I saw was very politician-like non-answers.
If Newt dropped out, where would his votes go?
I expect many would go to Santorum. Some may go to Paul. They wouldn't go to Romney.
Obviously, your question is VERY hypothetical since Santorum will very likely drop out soon. He simply doesn't have the level of organization and money it would take to stay in. His contributions are going no where but down given his showing in the last two primaries.
Thanks. I hope Rick drops out after his poor performance yesterday. And I hope once he does, the foaming-at-the-mouth hatred for him stops.
Thanks for the information on Fox News lieing on Newt. They are on a mission to sink him with every word. I am truly shocked at their constant derogatory comments against Newt and am not surprised they would lie as well.
Gingrich should have spent more time with HIS daughters instead of his mistresses.
Your original post was disgusting.
