Newt had a lot to do with his own defeat.
When he came out and slammed Romney on Bain Capital he was indistigusible from the occupy wall street crowd.
I disagree about Newt's "alleged error" of criticising Romney for the massive Bain Capital disaster of Romney's failed campaign.
Even Rush Limbaugh tacticly agrees that Bain Capital helped destroy Romney's campaign.
On Wednesday (yesterday) 2012-11-28 Rush Limbaugh recounted a KEY campaign statistic ...
that 85 percent of voters felt that Obama "really cared" for them ...
and ONLY 15 percent of voters felt that Romney "really cared" for them.
That statistic is a DISASTER !!!
When the politically INEPT Romney says things like ...
1) "I like to FIRE PEOPLE"
2) My wife has ONLY two Cadillacs
3) "Corporations are PEOPLE too ..."
It scares the living ###### out of possible voters.
You campaign with a STUPID message like that ... when 75-percent of America Adults are TERRIFIED of losing their jobs ...
and you get one of the Primary reasons for Romney's well-deserved defeat.
Even as a Evangelical Christian Pro-Life Tea Party conservative ...
and a business owner as well ...
who reluctantly voted for Romney-Ryan for "Pro-Life" reasons ...
I KNOW with "metaphysical certainty" that Mitt Romney will NEVER give a damn about ANYONE ...
unless they are either Mormons, direct familiy members ...
and his well-heeled "Vulture Captitalist" buddies at Bain Capital.
And of course, as usual, Newt Gingrich NAILS the POLITICAL TRUTH ... again ...

You campaign with a STUPID message like that ... when 75-percent of America Adults are TERRIFIED of losing their jobs ... and you get one of the Primary reasons for Romney's well-deserved defeat. Many Republicans - especially the GOPe types - seem to think that the benefits of lower taxes and fewer regulations on small businesses are self-evident to the voting public.
They aren't.
When the public hears that kind of talk, especially with Democrats around to re-frame it, they just feel like the GOP is making sure the "haves" get a better deal than they already have. To them, the small businessman is not a hero - he's the jerk who drives a Mercedes because he charges them $1.00 too much per shirt for dry-cleaning.
Small business has an image problem - we aren't the heroes in the working public's eyes that we like to think we are. It really isn't about Romney being a elitist country club guy - the public heard the message loud and clear that he intended to help out small business. They just didn't like it.
