What New with Newt?

And where, dare I ask, should we put McCain?

In a padded room with Dean.

[La Enchiladita]

..and Rudy Giuliani as Homeland Security Director.

I guess you never heard of Bernard Kerik ...

I guess you never heard of Bernard Kerik ...

Yes, I have, but are they joined at the hip?

[redgirlinabluestate]

In a padded room with Dean.

Be nice. He IS a war hero.

[La Enchiladita]

No. But, uh.... nevermind.

[JSteff]

"two divorces and the circumstances surrounding them tarnish him greatly."

Circumstances created by the Dems and the MSM.

I would rather vote for a reptile than an amphibian.

With the presidential field the way it is, I almost think we should consider forgiving Jack Kemp for being about the worst vice presidential campaigner in history.

Kemp is the elder statesman of the party, even more than Newt is. Instrumental in the economic turnaround of the country under Reagan, and actually the leader in the tax rate reduction plank of the Republican Party.

"She" ( Hillary ) turned me into a "Newt" (supporter).

Monty Python and The Holy Grail

I have never read where he denied his affair with Calista Bisek. Even if the circumstances were exaggerated by the MSM, we need a leader who has a strong moral character.

After reading front-line about Newt I never realized how much he did for the movement

[calcowgirl]

I guess you never heard of Bernard Kerik ...

That is the foremost reason I cannot vote for Rudy. I don't trust his judgment or his alliances one iota.

[Cobra64]

Newt is under rated except for all of his personal "baggage" that some FReepers love to talk about.

They should read:

I never knew he was the founder of C.O.S

[Lewite]

Newt Gingrich/Ben Stein '08

[BUSHdude2000]

Giuliani-Gingrich '08

[La Enchiladita]

I didn't think I should have to spell it out and I was tired. Unfortunately, whatever Rudy did or did not know about Kerik, it didn't look good when Kerik was "found out" AFTER having accepted the Homeland Security chief position.

He should never have had a security clearance to work in New York City as Police Commissioner, considering his background.

So, it does and it will, raise suspicions about Giuliani that will never go away. Yet he sails along in his bid for the presidency. IMO, he had his 15 minutes of fame.

One only needs to google the name Bernard Kerik a bit to find all sorts of stuff about the character, including business dealings with the Saudis.

[Jet Jaguar]

The baggage is already out there.

He still is the only choice for me.

The rest are gun grabbers or mental patients.

[Anti-Bubba182]

Ben Stein wouldn't take the pay cut.

[Cobra64]

Newt is absolutley the best candidate we have. He's smart, he's well read, cogent arguments. He'd debate any opponent under the table.

He also has bigger gonads than anyone else I can think of to stand up to the liars in DC and the MSM.

However, there are those who care more about his marital life than his qualififcations as President.
