GREENSBORO, N.C. – The day after Newt Gingrich was bit by a penguin at a zoo, he acknowledged he is “the underdog” and said his campaign began renting their donor list because they needed money.

---

“Compared to Barack Obama, Romney’s a conservative,” he said. “Let’s be clear: There are no liberals in the Republican party.”

I don’t believe anything in print as long as Mitt is breathing. Unless I heard it out of Newt’s mouth, he didn’t say it, IMO.

Republican liberals call themselves progressives.

Giuliani is in a separate class than Romney. Romney is evil.

“Compared to Barack Obama, Romney’s a conservative,” he said.

Compared to the men who wrote the Constitution, both of them are oath-breaking socialists.

“Let’s be clear: There are no liberals in the Republican party.”

Let's be clear: There are no principled conservative statesmen in the top levels of the Republican Party.

Romney is a socialist abortion loving universal healthcare vending gun grabbing one-percenter mormon who keeps all his money safely overseas so communist DC cannot grab it. Romney should go overseas and live with his money and leave us alone. We do not need his interference. Clearly he sold his soul to the media communists or he would not be in the race. He has never articulated why he wants to be president. WHO IS BEHIND THIS GUY? I would love to know who his handlers are. I would suppose Soros Buffet and Gates. Somebody wants to make sure he gets the nomination so he can lose to Obama. Even Charlie Sheen could beat Obama, but Mint will throw the election just like McCain did. What is going on??

Romney does not bear the slightest resemblance to a conservative who cares about the republic and freedom and families and babies and God. He is a big government poster child, checked pants pink shirted rich country club RINO.

Well, if what you say is true, then I guess no one should vote for Gringrich because if what you say is true then Newt either has to be terminally stupid or a liar. What a quandary.

Don’t despair There is always Ron Paul if you do not want Gingrich.

For some reason all the other bozos are out.

Someone gets it. His assignment is to make clear the path for Barry’s re election. That’s why they chose the weakest of all and protected him. He doesn’t stand a chance against barry. We heard his debate skills - WEAK. More like talking points. And he had media/moderators who favored him. He’s turned down many debates so far - he has NOTHING to say. And he has absolutely nothing to debate barry with!

They don’t want Newt because Bambi would look like a fool. Can’t let that happen. Voters were deceived by all the millions of dollars spent by Mitt and the media’s orders were to protect him and keep drumming he is in the lead. He was in the lead from when he stepped on stage and they kept hammering that away. Didn’t matter who was in the lead, they kept driving that message home to deceive voters.
