“I could care less about Beck...never liked his canonization of King and his denunciation of TR and his thinly veiled snottiness against Southerners...as in his anti South Carolina diatribe”
YES, totally agree. I also hated it when he would talk about “three men”-—MLK, Gandhi, and Jesus-—and how they changed the world, or something. Do not put my Lord and Savior in a group of men, as if He is is nothing more.
Now did we lose the seats because of Newt?
Your enthusiasm overloads your import. Don’t bother. It’s pitiful.
I think they’re trying to achieve changing minds based on the believe that Gigrich is a deeply flawed candidate that can cause great damage to the party in running a Presidential campaign and even deeper damage if he’s elected President. At least Beck - Drudge is just trying to achieve page views.
I agree with Beck’s assessment. I think Newt’s very ego driven, strays way off the reservation, and holds the potential to do Nixon level damage to the party. I was happy to support Cain who holds very similar positions - but for me Newt is a no-go. Now I voted for McCain and I’ll vote for Gingrich and hope that he doesn’t blowout the conservative case for a decade or two - but I feel like the Gingrich ascendancy is a bad “Bizarro World” episode in my life.
Anyone arguing the Drudge doesn’t have a anti-Newt bias is an idiot. Pointing it out doesn’t make one a Newt ‘homer’, it simply means they don’t have their head up their @ss.
As has been reported several times in here today, and mentioned by Rush, that Mitt’s own adviser says he won’t repeal Obamacare, is open to a VAT tax, and supports a $2/gal fuel tax yet Drudge completely ignores it! He instead wants to peddle smear articles about Newt. I’m beginning to think that some of these Drudge apologists are nothing more than Romney plants....
In case you didn’t notice, Mr. Impartial (Matt Drudge) has yet another Newt hit piece boldly headlining his site. If you really believe that he doesn’t have an agenda, you need help.
