That whole argument is ridiculous. If Romney is the nominee Obama wins by between 12-15 points, I think most people know that. Romney is a Democrat with an R next to his name, would he a slight improvement over Obama, yes, but heck even Soros says they are both the same
Romney is as much a Republican as Michael Bloomberg. /s
Sarah Palin and others, including FReepers, are simply doing what Bob Grant and this Zeigler guy is doing. They are picking and defending their candidate and ignoring all of their obvious flaws.
For Grant or Zeigler to accuse Palin of wanting Obama re-elected, sound familiar?, because she doesn’t like their guy is ludicrous.
The fact is that both candidates ARE flawed, Romney might as well be Obama (not even worth considering, IMO) and Newt is capable of flipping 180 on big issues like Individual mandates, global warming, amnesty and whatnot.
Just because someone has decided the other guy is more electable doesn’t mean they support Obama. Just because they don’t like either also doesn’t mean they support Obama.
That is my opinion and I want Obama gone yesteryear!
Sure, he's ‘establishment’ for the Republicans in the mid 1990’s. Since then, we've had George W Bush's big government spending, McCain's presidential crash and burn, and all this time, their people getting higher and higher in state party offices, getting more influence from ‘packaging’ donations to the candidate for president, etc.
Mitt Romney will keep those same players in the game, as he's helped them over the years, and they're paying back that support with support now. Newt Gingrich's team has no need of them, and likely will dismiss most of them, as they've acted against Newt in the primaries.
This, actually, is what is meant when talking about ‘the establishment’ in Republican politics. The same bastards who mock the TEA party conservatives, who think a balanced budget is one that can lay on supersized dining table, who have no problem making more and more mandates from Washington to cement their power.
Is Newt some outside radical? Of course he is, compared to what's inside right now. Is he electable? I mean, come on, we got a half-white guy in the White House who has pretty much done nothing with his whole life. Apparently qualifications are pretty thin when it comes to winning the White House.
FUJZ!!
Yeah, and Benedict Arnold was a hero to the cause too, before he betrayed it!!
REBELLION IS ON!!
Go, Sarah!!
Go, Newt!!
Go, tea party rebellion!!
So says another establishment mouse.
(yawn)
Thanks reformjoy.
John Ziegler is a moron and isn’t worth reading.
EVER
This looks like a Hillary Clinton supporter posting troll material
The GOP elites and their backers are proud of what they are. There’s no shame or reservation in what they do. Fine by me. I’ll have no shame when I get the opportunity to set things right. None!
“So the only logical explanation for Palin’s bizarre “endorsement” of Gingrich is that she knows that he can’t win and that she is using him to create this false narrative of an evil “establishment” keeping the noble Tea Party down (explain to me again how Newt is remotely “Tea Party”?), like they somehow did in those Palin-induced Senate losses in Delaware and Nevada in 2010.”
I have to think about this. Could Sarah Palin be so devious?
And being a commentator on FOX news (called here at FR “FAUX” NEWS), isn’t Sarah Palin a member of both the Establishment and the hated Media Elites?
Yeah, thanks for NUTHIN.
Hit piece trying to take Sarah down yet again ..... her comments have not been helpful to Romney. I saw something (can't remember where) that seemed to tie some of Romney's current advisors into the attempt to destroy her a couple of years ago - Romney needed her out of the way so she couldn't challenge him. I'm trying to find something on this, but no luck so far.
>> Does Sarah Palin Want Obama Reelected?
Take your BS premise, and go pound sand.
