Don’t be too close to any RINOs or journalists when Newt wins Florida or you’ll be covered in icky goo when their head explodes. It’s best to watch from a safe distance.

My only comment is: Payback is a bitch or what goes around comes around.

Romney and his minions have played dirty for years. Their tactic has been to let the shadow goons play dirty while Mitt acts presidential and above it all. Now that Mittens is snarling, we can see just how freaked out they are.

They have nobody to blame but themselves. They made an enemy of Palin, Gingrich and anyone who dared challenege his patina of “inevitability”. Now they reap what they have sown.

I watched the ad, and I'm sure that because I'm a FReeper, but I already knew this stuff and it seemed like a yawner.

Maybe the folks that have never seen any of this will be moved more.

The basic message is mittens can't be trusted to repeal obamacare, and as much as I'm against mittens, even I don't believe that.

Am I miss reading the effect of this ad?

‘People power and right idea’ Gingrich said in the S. Carolina victory speech.

The power of We the people together with the ‘Right Idea’ that is articulated so well by Gingrich will save USA from the alinsky/oneworld/commie/islamofascist destruction!

I ran across this article from August today and I think it's germane to the conversation since Mitt is getting a little bit of what he loves to dish out:

Big Business Has Been Very, Very Good To Mitt Romney

Of Restore Our Future’s 90 wealthy donors so far, the ubiquitous Marriotts among them, four gave a million dollars apiece. One was John Paulson, described by the website Politico as “a New York hedge fund billionaire who became famous for enriching himself by betting on the collapse of the housing industry.”

The other three allegedly are corporations but none of them conduct any real business. Two, Eli Publishing and something called F8 LLC, each list the same Provo, Utah, address as trusts set up by the families of two executives at the anti-aging product company Nu Skin Enterprises. Nu Skin founders and fellow Mormons Stephen Lund and Blake Roney were big contributors to Romney’s first White House campaign in 2008. (For what it’s worth, twice in the ’90s, Nu Skin was hauled before the Federal Trade Commission and paid a total of $2.5 million to settle allegations of unsubstantiated product claims.)

The other shell company, W Spann LLC, was even more mysterious. As first reported by Michael Isikoff of NBC News, it was dissolved only months after it was created, and just two weeks before Restore Our Future reported the company’s donation. As Isikoff wrote, “Campaign finance experts say the use of an opaque company like W Spann to donate large sums of money into a political campaign shows how post-Watergate disclosure laws are now being increasingly circumvented.”

After days of media demands and questions, the man behind W Spann finally came forward: Edward Conard, a retired managing director of — surprise — Bain Capital. But he only stepped up after the groups Democracy 21 and the Campaign Legal Center requested investigations by the Justice Department and the Federal Elections Commission. He made his donation “after consulting prominent legal counsel regarding the transaction,” Conard said, “and based on my understanding that the contribution would comply with applicable laws.”

Phony businesses set up for the sole purpose of laundering campaign money and shielding who’s really behind massive contributions? The donors responsible for the dummy corporations all say they have nothing to hide. So why hide it? Maybe to keep their distance, because Restore Our Future could be planning attack ads on Republican rivals and President Obama that will be harsher and more truth bending than anything Romney and his nearest and dearest can officially support.

We need to discover this and other answers before the money machine completely supplants the voting machine, and any last chance to have our voices heard is permanently stilled by cold hard cash.

Note, since there are always cries of "bigotry" whenever Mitt's religion is mentioned, and he refuses to discuss it even though SC proved it was a factor in his loss there, this article documents millions of mormon dollars going into Mitt's campaign.

Identity politics, anyone?

Also from the article, "Yes, corporate people power has served Romney well, especially when it comes to political fundraising. As Huffington Post reported this week, “According to disclosure reports filed at the end of July, 61 registered lobbyists and five lobbyist-linked political action committees contributed $137,650 to Romney’s campaign between Jan. 1 and June 30, 2011. The former Massachusetts governor raised more money from lobbyists during this period than all of his competitors combined

Remember the "lobbyist accusations Mitt threw at Newt in the last debate?

" … Craig Holman, legislative representative for the watchdog group Public Citizen, told HuffPost that Romney’s lead in lobbyist cash ‘strongly suggests that Romney is the favored candidate for wealthy special interest groups, especially K Street. They clearly think that they can get their foot in the door with Mitt Romney.’”

Newt started out not attacking his fellow republicans, thus setting a standard. In other words, he didn't throw the first punch or start the fight.

I admire that. Of course, we know what happened. He got clobbered in Iowa by Mitt's surrogate attack ads.

Next, we got to see what happens when Newt gets attacked without provocation and, speaking for myself, SC was a joy to watch.

Newt knows how the game is played and, unlike the usual GOP republicans, he fights to win and I believe he'll fight for us.

I believe he'll take that fighting spirit and ability and use it to reform our very broken system. He's done it before and, now an older, wiser, more grounded Grandfather Newt is the best chance we have now to do it again.

The demonrats and the GOP rinos know it, too, and they're scared! Fun to watch.
