Gingrich Pledges Seven Lincoln-Douglas Style Debates with Obama if Nominated
Reaganite Republican ^ | November 7, 2011 | Reaganite Republican

Posted on 11/07/2011 10:06:27 AM PST by Reaganite Republican

'Three hours each... with a time-keeper... and no moderator.'

Newt Gingrich spoke Friday at the Iowa GOP's 'Reagan Dinner'...
______________________________________________________________________

"On the first day of a Gingrich Administration, I would issue a series of Exectutive Orders... the very first of which would  abolish all the White House czars'

"I would fire (Bernanke) tomorrow... and the Fed should be audited"

"What we're faced with is the results of a radical ideology, and an inexperienced, incompetent president..."

"I will outline a 21st-Century 'Contract with America'...  and it's going to be far bolder, far deeper, and far more profound than we did in 1994... or than I helped Jack Kemp and  Ronald Reagan do in 1980."

"I think it is fundamentally wrong to five people money for  99 weeks for doing nothing..."

"I predict he will accept (the debates)... firstly as a matter of ego"

"I am a professor, and I did study history.
And unlike Obama, I studied American history."

The only way I could possibly see this happening (and there won’t be 7 of them) would be if Gingrich can play to Obama’s ego. Obama has a large ego. It’s a matter of getting to it.

Newt can say anything he likes. He has ZERO NADA ZILCH NIL(add cliche here)chance of being the nominee.

“NO moderator!”

That’d be fine, but no moderator = Lincoln/Douglas debate? Give me a break.

Never happen. Obama would never agree.

I don’t give much for Newt’s chances either, but then three months ago I assumed Palin would be the nominee.

I didn’t see Perry fading out like he has, or the rise of Cain, either.

Politics moves fast, and is full of surprises, is all I’m saying.

Point taken but for me the big issue with all the debates this year has been the 90% lib writers moderating the debates and blatantly manipulating the opportunity to benefit the Left... what on Earth is the GOP thinking acquiescing to this
