Have you noticed that Gingrich is all over the place now, traveling around the country giving speeches...without a teleprompter....writing books, making robot phone calls, appearing on tv, and making videos? For instance, have you seen his "Discovering God in America", and "We have the Power?" These are excellent, realistic and informative videos that really make you think.
Last winter, while spending time in a warmer climate, well before the election process was in full swing, I talked to people who were wishing Newt would run for president. And during this last election cycle I attended many rallies for local and state Republican candidates. There were many times, when I was taken by surprise by people...people of all ages...who out of the blue, would bring up Newt's name, and comment on how intelligent, and how well informed he is, and that he would make a good president.
Here on Free Republic I've see postings telling Newt to go away. And very often I have felt the same way..he has too much baggage. I was really disappointed in his affair while his wife was ill, the photo of him sitting next to Nancy Pelosi as they buddied up to each other over climate change. Just a couple of things that go against our conservative principles.
On the other hand Newt has the qualifications, the knowledge, and the experience to be a good president....to get this country back to the way our founders intended it to be. I think that people are seeing this, and Newt is slowly building a support group. And wouldn't a debate between Newt and Obama be interesting? It would really be something to see.
Quite honestly of the three wise men I give Newt the best chance to beat Palin because unlike Romney or Huckabee his support cuts across ideology and is more national in scope.
