Why not be behind Newt 110% right now, when it counts?
I’ve already said I would plug my nose, drink a jug of whiskey, and then pull the lever for Romney if my only choice was between Tyrant and Tyrant Light.
But why should we settle for that kind of choice, when we can work for a candidate who isn’t knee-high to a worm? Why should we leave for ourselves only the choice between a guy who thinks fully-born infants should be disposable, and a guy who has forced people to perform abortions against their will? That’s like stocking your cabinet with arsenic and botulinum so you have the choice of dying fast or dying slow. Why not, instead, stock your cabinet with TEA?
That’s all I’m saying. We still have the option of TEA, so why even talk about whether to drink the arsenic or the botulinum?
My goal is to get rid of Obama period. I have no beef with your arguments on the merits of them. But what you want will not happen as of April 15, 2012. Why waste the resources we will need in the fall. The enemy is the Democrats, not ourselves. The primaries were fought out and the winner is obvious to most. Newt would agree. Watch, he will barely campaign from hear on out. I haven’t heard a negative word from Newt in weeks, why, because he knows he’s lost. Newt’s an old pro, he knows the deal. He has no illusions. If Obama is reelected most of us will be devastated, but watch the candidates, all of them, they will be less so. Why, because this is the business they have chosen, they realize all victories and defeats are temporary things. They pick themselves up and on to the next campaign, the next day sometimes.
