Newt was on CNN earlier today and said that he believes Romney hasn’t found a theme that really resonates with people yet, which is why he isn’t doing better ins states like Florida and Ohio, both of which have Republican governors. Bu he doesn’t believe it’s the candidate or anything else for that matter, he simply believes that it is message, that Romney needs to draw sharper lines between he and Obama and really hammer the differences in a way that makes sense to people.
He was also critical of an ad Romney released this morning, where Romney said that both he and Obama care about the middle class. Newt said he just doesn’t understand why Mitt is saying that:

Yep. Like McCain - he saves his harshest criticisms for conservatives.
Obama is Alinsky.
Didn’t MItt read Rules for Radicals by ALinsky?????
You destroy the middle class by using it against itself.
That is you keep saying you cut taxes for the middle class. Like Obama.
HE HATES THE MIDDLE CLASS. HE MUST DESTROY IT.
He’s destroying their jobs. (KEystone) He’s spending up the wazoo—
taxing the middle class in future, stealing money from middle class
programs like Medicare to give to working poor and welfare Obamacare
subsidies.
The middle class will not get Obamacare subsidies.
They will get taxed.
SOCIALISM IS THE WORKING POOR AND WELFARE PEOPLE and....
the power elites.
NO ONE ELSE.
Romney should say if Obama cared about the middle class,
he should resign because his stimulus didn’t work, Obamacare was
not popular, and he has no new economic ideas
WILLARD STOP SUCKING
C’mon Rommeny, here are some real issues to ram down their throats just in case you can’t think of any or don’t want to offend the communists:
Overwhelming our economy with irresponsible annual trillion dollar debt
Allowing Bernanke to continue de-valuing our dollar which will subseqeuntly destroy our retirement savings and our economy through unbelievable interest payments which we will not be able to pay (overwhelming our economy on another front) not to mention what it does to our credit rating
Planned massive cuts in our military which leaves us completely vulnerable while our enemies are building up theirs’
Wrecking our healthcare which will overwhelm our economy with even more debt until it collapses
Romney, don’t go limp on us now...
Exactly. I have NEVER heard a single positive word from the rats about Romney. Romney's problem is that he is a coward. He is scared to death he might offend somebody. He is scared to death of the Democrat newsrooms. This is why Romney has spent his life as a flip-flopping, thoroughly unprincipled weakling.
In 1994 Romney got off to an early lead in his race for the Senate against Teddy Kennedy. I remember following the race closely. By the time the debates were over and Romney was whimpering for the Boston Globe to please please like him, he was more gay-friendly, abortion-friendly, and environment-friendly than Ted Kennedy! Naturally, Romney proceeded to lose in a landslide.
Can America survive this choice between an African communist and a cowardly weakling who has absolutely no ability or willingness to get tough, go for the throat, kick some ass - - or even mildly offend his opponent?? How about dabbling in sarcasm and wit once in awhile? Maybe even say something mean (oh, Heaven forfend!)? I honestly don't know which of these two morons will be worse for America for the next four years.
This nation is in big, big trouble. Yikes.
Romney is leading a horse to water...by mentioning that Obama cares about the middle class, he is leading people to listen (it's not an attack ad, so it gets peoples' attention); and then once they think about it, they say, "It doesn't matter if Obama cares or not, he's still ruining things."
And then they take out their anger in the voting booth against Obama, who promised skittles and unicorn farts, and who said that caring is all that matters ("this is the moment...the planet began to heal.")
Cheers!

I hope you are right, I hope it turns out like that
Someone tell him there is no rule against fighting back.
Pray for America
Agreed. Repubs/conservatives should stop sabotaging their own.. STFU comes to mind.. Talk to him privately if need be, but not publicly condemn him. There’s PLENTY to trash 0bama on. PLENTY!
Typical corporate raider MBA team. “We know what we’re doing, STFU!” Sometimes they succeed. Sometimes they fail. In my own experience, I’ve seen such arrogant pricks fail more than succeed.
If they don’t start fighting back soon,they will lose this election.
Newt is spot on. Anyone engaged in this election cycle should be concerned (like Newt). Romney should be double points ahead vs this about tied or ahead by 2 since Obama is very radical. But as you can see by some of these posts; the voter has this tendency of political correctness and fear. Either support a person who is strong or stop complaining that the person is too weak. No wonder a candidate is afraid to do much except Newt. Thank God there is a person as Newt and Palin who tells it the way it is even if it makes some stress out even more. Romney has enough of Obama’s past to bring the message out; it’s Romney.
I don’t know WHAT you’re talking about, but Newt is 100% right. WHY, oh WHY is Myth afraid to take off the gloves?
Filth and his surrogates call Romney every name in the book and Romney talks about what a nice guy Filth is? On what planet can this possibly be a good idea? He needs to make the point - with demonstrable facts - that Filth is NOT a “nice guy” but a leftist thug who cares not one whit for anyone, “middle-class” or otherwise, but who wants POWER.
I don’t believe Myth is as far behind as the polls indicate either...but he should be up 10 points and the reason he isn’t is that he’s going down the John McCain path of trying to make sure the media doesn’t criticize him, not understanding that the media is NEVER, EVER going to cut him any slack.
He needs to go for the jugular. He had no problem doing it against Republicans, becuase no one was whispering in his hear that he had to be “nice” to THEM. Apparently someone IS doing that vis-a-vis Filth and it will take him down if he doesn’t start strong attcks...and SOON.

This election is a war. A front lines down and dirty fight. Are you up for it?
Obama is trying to destroy our Sacred Republic. You need to say that to yourself many times daily to get your blood up. You need to fight him like our very survival is at stake - which it is. No more of this Mr. Nice Guy stuff. McCain tried that and lost. For the love of God, he wants to destroy free-market capitalism! Understand it. Feel it. Know it. Grrrrrrr. Fight like hell!
Obama is taking opportunity away from your kids and grandkids and saddling them with unsustainable debt. Are you mad yet? Go get him. We got your back. Absolutely come out swinging in the debates. Grab the hearts and minds of the American people and have them standing up in their living rooms saying, "Yeah, that's right, go get him!" "All right, he's a fighter." You can do it! Do that and the White House is yours.
Remember, the pre-orchestrated debates have been pre-planned, pre-written and pre-practiced. Obama is taking three days off to 'practice.' The reviews and comments have already been written. Obama won. The only thing that is going to change that is an absolutely go get em' aggressive approach. There's so much anger out here that if you are 'assertive,' the people will love it. You don't have to lose it, but close will do. . . Fight!
Myth ought to use Obumster’s own words against him. There is plenty from his “autobiography” to the latest speech at the UN. He’ll stand with the Muslims, he once said (you can easily find that quote Googling on the word “winds” with his name.) Shout it from the rooftops! Apparently, the voters are not so well informed, or if they were they’d be outraged at even a small collection of Comrade O’s sayings. OK, that’s how it is , educate them, Myth!
Excellent post Art.
The socialists on the left DESPISE the middle class and all it stands for because it’s the only group of people standing in their way of the type of society they desire.
Ann Coulter is out peddling a new book. Marxism = $$ for the savvy. Look at the price of gold. ;) Lord knows I never could have attained the wealth in a lifetime, much less two and a half years, I now have if the Marxist in chief had never been elected. It’s a boon that I fear some do not want to see end.
Between the bigots that don’t want to see a Mormon in the Whitehouse, the RINOs that are raking in the cash, and the American people that simply do not give a damn, I am disillusioned. Romney doesn’t have it in him to get out and fight. If he doesn’t, why should I? I did it 4 years ago for that stinking McCain and I feel an instant replay coming.
Instead of cold-calling and begging for votes, I am thinking of looking for a home offshore where I can find employees that want to earn an honest dollar instead of worrying about losing their bennies if they work.
I believe this country is done if Obama gets a second term. And so am I. Yes, I can earn money like crazy for another four years, but at what cost? Losing my Country that I love?
I am low right now. Very low. God forgive me for what I am considering.
The only notable person I have seen slam Romney’s faith is Harry Reid.
