We haven’t even had one primary yet. Let the people decide.

The thing is, the people ARE going to decide, regardless of any “calls to unity” or what happens on FR.

This type of post, regardless that it’s styled as a call to unity, in my view boils down to a simple call to support Newt Gingrich, period. That’s totally appropriate for a Gingrich supporter to post, but I don’t think basing one’s plea for support on “unity” — at this point in the process — is going to be very persuasive.

“Unity” is an operative concept once and if the race becomes a two-man race. (The race will only be viewed as a two-man race if the first and second place finishers are close.)

We aren’t there yet.

As it is now, imo people who want others to support Newt simply need to keep making the case for that without trying to appeal to a “unity” that is not organic at this time.
